map is not being rendered in IE (7 and 8), all other browser are OK

Hi Zzolo,

I had a look at that page already but I don't think the solution was there. But I will check it thoroughly again.

@marcusx With my website I had already turned on the CSS and JS optimalisation. It didn't help me. Maybe you have some other settings that are making it work for you?

Hmmm, it might actually have to do with the 31 stylesheets problem in CSS! But the solution for me isn't in the CSS optimization setting. I had a look at the HTML source for the page and found some inline JS in the foot of the source that calls all my JS and CSS files (see at the bottom of this post).
I'm not sure what module is doing this and what the purpose is. My guess is that it's the Ctools module but I'm not sure. Need to dive into it.

I will be back if I have more results.

The inline JS found:

<script type="text/javascript">

It has taken me a long time to find out but the problem was an apparent conflict between the OpenLayers module/script and the Shadowbox module/script. This conflict prevented the maps from being loaded in any version of IE. Other browsers did not have any problems.

The solution was simple: I replaced the shadowbox module for the Lightbox2 module and everything works fine now!

I hope this information helps future users who come accross this problem. I will post it also in the issues queue for Shadowbox.

Changing the status to a bug-report.

Ah I see. Sorry for posting it here then. And thanks for your reply.
