    Hi,

    Can anyone tell me what I need to do to have my work look as nice in IE as it does in FF? In particular the custom menu and shadow-box around page and on left and right edges of menu. I have made a few changes using style.css in my child theme.

    Also note menu uses trajan pro.

    Thanks a ton!!

    I am not sure, but IE might not support the box-shadow css3 style yet. IF this is the case there is not much you can do. Maybe google “How to get CSS3 box shadow to work in IE” (probably a hack for it). When you look through your style.css is it using the box-shadow stlye?

    In IE9 it looks the same as in FF. In IE7 and 6 it apparently loads a different page – one with meta data on it and a smaller banner about the range.

    I wouldn’t worry about IE 7 and lower. IE 10 is coming out soon.

    Interesting you say that .. It made me curious and I looked at a web site I manage and here are the results of a web browser query that I find kind of interesting. Thanks all for your help.
