Question

I have a FlexSlider (new version) with fade effect between each slide.

The slider works correctly in all browsers apart from IE<=8. In IE8 the images are fading nicely but the text in the captions is not being faded resulting in a weird instant change between slide 1-2, 2-3 and so on…

I tried looking for a fix but couldn’t find anything useful and working, is there a solution for this out there?

Thank you in advance,
bye.

Here is a little JSFiddle that is showing the problem in IE8

Answer 1

After struggling many hours to find out why the text wasn’t fading I’ve found out that the problem is IE8 not liking position:absolute (or relative) and z-index on flex slider text container.
So i’ve used padding instead to position my texts.

Maybe this will be useful in future for someone.
