Header Problems on I.E. and Chrome for Mandigo Theme

    Hi,

    I am having a problem with my theme’s header displaying properly on I.E. and Chrome. It works fine on Firefox.

    When I load my page (https://www.sickpigs.com) with I.E. or Chrome the header (a custom pic I used instead of the generic header) doesn’t load properly. If I click to another page, or reload the home page, it seems to appear. But it never shows up on the initial visit.

    I know that I.E. is different from Firefox, and that I’m going to have to fix some code, I just have no idea what code to fix, or how to fix it.

    Any insight would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Everything is much easier to fix if you have good code. You can see here, https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sickpigs.com&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0 what needs fixing.

    What’s the best way to go about this? I would know how to do it on a regular HTML file, but since this is word press how do I access all of the lines? I know I get there from the editor, but since wordpress breaks it down by “header”, “style Sheet” etc. how do I figure out where the errors are located?

    Sorry, I’m new at this.

    Also, I’ve noticed that it’s not just the header, but rather any file with a .png extension that won’t load. I hope that helps.

    So you can try some different extensions.

    You can tell if you are on the header of footer by looking at the code. Basically it is all before <body>. Then you hsve sidebar and post and images. That is basically it. Errors are very seldom in the original php. Most are image errors, posts put in with wrong html and incompatible plugins or where you have added <div>’s.

    The good thing is that errors are cascading so when you fix one sometimes several of many go away.

    You can do a show source and copy your entire code to an editor to make it more clear. I think FF has an add-on or a built in feature that nmight number the lines.

    Thanks, I’ll give that a try.
