Hello,

I truly love this theme and still in learning how to conquer it. However, I find the slider in home page doesn’t work correctly in IE.

I took a look at your sample site which behaves the same. Slider title is clickable but not the image itself. Since it works fine with Chrome. It should be a bug.

Regards,

Dola

Yes, but it’s an IE bug, not a Graphene bug. Graphene works fine in real browsers, but IE is a mess. (It’s getting better, but it’s still a mess.)

This is the same issue as with the header image link. It has to do with how IE handles empty <a> tag which isn’t in line with all the other major browsers. I’ll fix it for IE in the next update.

I reverted theme to version 1.7 and it behaves correctly. Isn’t it a new issue after 1.7.2?

Not really sure what you mean by this.

Warning: Micro-rant follows

The point is that TPTB at Microsoft refuse to recognize that their browswer (MSIE) should follow the same web standards as other standards-compliant browsers.

This is not a bug in Graphene.

This is not even a bug in MSIE, since it is supposed to act this way.

This is a bug in the brains of people who develop MSIE. I, for one, refuse to keep jumping through their hoops. Instead, I educate my readers about better browsers. (See my blog for the link.)

I mean, sir, the older version doesn’t have this problem. Therefore…

But I understand now and truly thanks for your reply.

Cannot find how to end this thread since your answer generally resolved my question:)
