I came here to answer computer questions. (This used to say "...and nothing more.")


What I meant was, I don't know how much help I would be with other things... NOT that I would be upset if you asked a non computer question!

Lately, whenever I come on Advicenators. This is what I see....

Blank layout, then...

See, the content is off the page and below the layout? I'm using Windows 7 and I recently update Internet Explorer (Yes, I know it's terrible but I've never had a problem with IE while using Windows 7 before.) IE 9.0 (link)
Hi there,

This is something microsoft did to force people to re-code their websites to work with IE... which of course makes them look bad in other browsers, usually. :-(

It is a known issue, and there is a fix:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956197

... that link will tell you how to enable "compatibility mode" in IE9. When they first put out IE8 beta versions, there was an outcry you wouldn't believe among testers, because it broke so many site's designs. They created compatibility mode for internet explorer in order to quell the uproar.

Please enable it in your browser, and then let me know how things look.

Sorry they are still doing this... we all hoped they would grow up and stop trying to force people to do things their way when IE 9 came out, but apparently it only got worse. :-(

Please let me know how it turns out.

Thanks again!

DN.
