Hi David,

I haven't had a chance to look at this myself (it will take some time to go through and find out what is stopping IE from displaying the price table), but I can give you some guidance as to how to go about debugging it.

What you need to do is study the HTML and see what extra code your modifications are generating; and slowly comment out each modification until the price table displays correctly in Internet Explorer.

Then, once you know why it is not being displayed in IE you can work on the fix; but at the moment it could be one tiny thing amongst lots of HTML that is causing the problem - so the only way to find out what it is is by trial and error.

One thing you might want to try is to disable CSS to see if it is a CSS problem. In your header.php, comment out the line that includes the CSS file, and also remove any custom CSS that you have added to the HTML modules. If it is then displayed in Internet Explorer you know that it is an IE CSS issue that you are dealing with, rather than HTML.

Cheers,
David.

I've just thought of something else that might help ---

Make sure that your page validates; the W3C online validator may actually hightlight the problem. Here's the link the validate your example page....

Very boring... Nothing works on I.E
I hated Windows, and now I hate Internet Explorer...

I know it's tedious!

I develop in FireFox, and tend to make sure that everything verifies, and then do a check in Internet Explorer (Windows) and Safari (Apple Mac) after making any significant modifications.

Cheers,
