Rendering problem with Internet Explorer on new server

I have moved my site https://www.rwsprinters.co.uk to a new host and upgraded to v1.5. I have run into a rendering problem with Internet Explorer. Basically it is as if the site responding very slowly and is not sending any pictures. I have tested on Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari (for windows) and all is fine. Any ideas?

Re: Rendering problem with Internet Explorer on new server

Could you post your file, from the server, without your username and password, for: /includes/configure.php

It looks like you do not have this set up correctly ...

Which version of IE? If V8 try it in 'compatibility mode'.

This could also be a caching problem. Try clearing your browser cache.

If that doesn't solve it, you should also try clearing your DNS cache. To do this: Open the Windows command prompt by selecting the “Start” menu and entering “cmd” in the search text field box followed by clicking the “enter” key.At the command prompt, enter “ipconfig /flushdns” followed by pressing the “enter” key. After a moment, Windows will display a message similar to: “Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.” Once the message is displayed, the DNS will be flushed removing all incorrect entries.

The fact that all is well with other browsers would suggest that your configuration is correct.

Cheers Rod

Re: Rendering problem with Internet Explorer on new server

This is the Config file. The really strange thing is that the site worked when on a temporary URL on the same server . Now it is on its final URL it doesn't work properly for IE only.

Re: Rendering problem with Internet Explorer on new server

I have found that there was a whitespace in configuration file includes/configure.php on these following line,

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.rwsprinters.co.uk');

This seems to have cleared the problem

Re: Rendering problem with Internet Explorer on new server

Also check as it looks like a white space on the:

define('HTTPS_SERVER', ' https://moth.xssl.net/~rwsprint'%29;

as well ...
