Question

I can’t understand the reason of this trouble:
I’m using image slider and everything works nice except IE8.

Here is the site: link.

    <div id="slides">
        <div class="slides_container">
            <?php
                foreach($images as $image)
                   echo "<a href='#'><img style='margin: 0 auto; z-index: 9999;' src='{$image}' /></a>";
            ?>
        </div>
        <a href="#" class="prev"><img src="images/prev.png" width="45" height="52" alt="Arrow Prev"></a>
         <a href="#" class="next"><img src="images/next.png" width="45" height="52" alt="Arrow Next"></a>
    </div>


#slides {
    position:absolute;
    top:15px;
    left:4px;
    z-index:100;
}


.slides_container {
    margin-top: 30px;
    width:765px;
    height: 350px;
    overflow:hidden;
    position:relative;
    display:none;
}


.slides_container a {
    width:765px;
    height:350px;
    display:block;
}

.slides_container a img {
    display:block;
}

So, in Chrome, Firefox, etc I see images in slider, but in IE8 I don’t see any images. Can you help me to find the trouble?

p.s. I can’t check it under IE8 because I have Linux. I just know it doesn’t work there.

Answer 1

The HTML code being generated inside the “slides_container” DIV is as follows:

<div class="slides_container">
   <a href='#'>
      <img style='margin: 0 auto; z-index: 9999;' src='images/gallery/home/pic29.jpg'></img>
   </a>
</div>

As you can see, the image tag is not rendered correctly. It should be without a closing

</img>

tag.

Once this is fixed, it will work in Internet Explorer.
