I have a view in place that uses exposed filters in a block. In IE (7 & 8) once "Apply" is clicked the view does not show any results and the exposed filters are found over the view area (where they would be normally if not in a block) and also in the block. Everything works as it should (returning results and keeping the exposed filters in the block) in Firefox and in Chrome. The reason that it is breaking in IE is because I have added a view to the exposed form block via an appropriately named tpl file. Can anyone take a look at what I've done and let me know why it's not working in IE? I wish everyone would just switch to Firefox so I could stop dealing with these browser issues!!

If this is working in Firefox and Chrome probably is not a view bug.

You should, wrap your code in <code> </code> tags, we cannot see the complete tpl code.

Here's the code properly wrapped. I have it saved in the file views-exposed-form--search--default.tpl.php
