That sucks. Is there a way to force IE to use a different CSS code for the #menu-wrap so we can force it to use #ddd as a color?

I’m just trying to find a workaround for this problem, any help is welcome 🙂

I already encourage people to use either Chrome or Firefox, it’s just so much easier for webdesigners and for the users aswell. I’m a Business IT & Management student so i know about the problems that IE has.

For this site however i expect lots a users still using Internet Explorer. It’s for a beauty parlour of a friend of mine and 95% of those costumers are older ladies, who most likely use IE.

For this situation it’s best to try and get a workaround. I´m trying to discover where the color (darkblue) is located in the CSS but i can´t seem to figure it out. Could you possibly try to find it, i can always give you the login-codes for the website if that’s easier.

It would really be a big help.

Isn’t there a way to use CSS to force a color, i mean, where does it get the dark blue from?

I only want it 1 color and i’m never going to change it again so any solution is acceptable to me 😉

Ok i edited it and it now changes in Firefox and Chrome. However the color remains darkblue in Internet Explorer.

It’s now like this:

But it doesn’t change on the site itself.

I really appreciate your help!

Quote:

#ddd returns a grey value. Since you are specifying the same grey value for both the top and bottom of the gradient, you are seeing a solid grey band, instead of a gradient.

Selecting different default background colors will produce the gradient you are looking for. It should work in IE8, “should” being the operative word in all Microsoft products:

The problem is is that i already have set these things the way you proposed it to do.

Thanks for the custom css. Works like a charm 🙂

Thanks for the custom css. The text is now quite a bit smaller.

Is there also a way to make the black area smaller?

For my primairy menu i have the following settings

Top background: #ddd

Bottom background: #ddd

If it’s fixable without the use of a gradient i’m happy too, because i think that is causing the problem right?

I know IE is a huge pain in the ass, i only noticed the flaw yesterday because i always work in Chrome or Firefox.

Thanks in advance.
