Microsoft released its Internet Explorer (ie9) today and I noticed straight away that it doesn't display IH2 hover effect correctly. Or, perhaps more correct, it seems to display the image hoover when a category is first loaded, but as soon as the page is scrolled the hover doesn't work any more.
Can anyone confirm? I've tried two more sites found in this thread and none is working with the image hover overlay.
A fix would be great!
Yep i can confirm its happening like you say, weird as i never noticed this error when using the RC version of IE9, but just tested it and it fails in there too.Quote:

find your
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/html_header.php
if you don't have that file copy the one from
includes/templates/template_default/common/html_header.php
find this section
and add thisCode:<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php echo CHARSET; ?>" />
<meta name="keywords" content="<?php echo META_TAG_KEYWORDS; ?>" />
<meta name="description" content="<?php echo META_TAG_DESCRIPTION; ?>" />
<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />
directly under it
This tells IE9 to use the IE8 compatibility,Code:<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8" />
Ok I now have a proper fix, that seems to work so ignore the above, I am just testing it now in all browsers should have it sorted in an hour or soQuote:

Ok, Testers
go here

WAIT FOR THE PAGE TO COMPLETELY LOAD, then check the hover effect
I have tested in Vista
IE9
IE9 compatibility mode
Opera 11.01
Chrome 10.0.648.134
Firefox 3.6.13
Basically compatibility should be identical to the previous version, just IE9 should work correctly now
I just need to tidy the code up a bit, then i will flick it to you Diva

Edit: taking a while as my comp is on its last legs and keeps crashing
You rock dude!!! Will grab the code and add to the upcoming update..Quote:

The current version (save the IE9 issues with the JS) is still perfectly fine to download and install..
@nigelt74 your code rocks!
it work well in safari too.
Thank you sir!
No worries, glad it works for youQuote:
