Facing design issue in IE6 and IE7

[krissy-cca]

Just a heads up - your test URL doesn't seem to be working (at least not for me). If you could post a new URL we can have a look at the code. What exactly isn't working - the whole thing or...?

Thanks Damien for letting me know this issue! It is accessbile from my place but not from anywhere else. I am looking into it and will soon revert.

Shailendra, Its not accessible from my end as well. I am using firefox & chrome and they do not seem to work. Please post a URL that we can have a look at.

I will also have a look at this when you have it working - in the meantime is it the search results or subsequent display of the search results that are causing you problems?

Regards,

Andy

Guys i have changed the IP address. It is now on http://61.246.241.253/. Now please check it on IE6 or IE7 and let me know the problem

Just an FYI, Microsoft is actively trying to kill off IE6 and most major websites have stopped supporting it http://ie6countdown.com/ Even IE7 is dying pretty quickly.

Hmm I thought I had IE 6 or 7 on one of my other machines but everything has been upgraded to 8 now I'm afraid.

Hi Shailendra,

I've tested your custom search form in both, IE6 and Google Chrome, and both do the same, they open a page on batchmaster.co.in in a new window.

Is it what I should expect? Can you tell me what is the problem you have on your end?  It might be your IE that is infected...

Best regards,

Hi Guillaume,

Please see the attached images. There is a gap between header and top navigation bar when i view it in IE6 and IE7 but not in Firefox or Chrome

Yes, I saw the difference after a second look.

First of all, let me suggest you that you should recode the design to a div/css/tableless design, but this would require to pretty much restart from scratch and at the point your are, I don't think that's what you want. But still...

Otherwise, to answer your question, here's the fix : Change the submit button to a input image and remove the unecessary styles.

Best regards,
Guillaume Voyer.

Thanks! I will try this and get back to you.

Did it fix your problem?

@Guillaume - Yes, it is rectified. I decreased the height of form tag
