IE.CSS NOT RECOGNIZED!!

By GreenSpiderDesign on 2 Oct 2009 at 15:58 UTC

I have a problem with several of my new sites not recognizing IE.css changes. Has anyone else experienced this?

Gotta give more info than that. What does "not recognizing" mean? What theme are you using? If you look at the source code in the browser, do you see IE.css included anywhere?

Ok - I'm using Zen theme as a base with my custom theme.css in /sites/all/themes/custom/theme.css

I have built literally over 100 sites and have NEVER experienced this issue before. I have:

    <!--[if IE 7]>
      <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php print $base_path . $directory; ?>/ie7-fixes.css" type="text/css">
    <![endif]-->

in the page.tpl.php file just below:

  <title><?php print $head_title; ?></title>
  <?php print $head; ?>
  <?php print $styles; ?>
  <?php print $scripts; ?>

and the ie7-fixes.css file is just simply ignored. For example, I have a body and a page background set in the theme.css file, but if I comment the background out in the ie7-fixes.css file there is no change. Similarly, if I change the margin on a particular block nothing happens.

As I say I have done this same implementation on over a hundred sites without fail. Now all of the sudden it is happening on my last three sites.

Bad to WORSE

Now I have a site where NONE of the CSS is recognized or executed in IE.

The site is http://chp.quepal.com

Anyone see any issue that might cause this?

IE has a limit of 32 stylesheets that can be used at a time. Maybe the combination of modules (some use stylesheets) and your own, you have crossed that limit.
