Strange Happenings on IE7

[autoace]

Especially with questions like this, we'll need a link to your site.

Sorry, about that, here you go:
http://www.a u t o m o t i v e a c e.com

Again, everything seems fine in FF, but in IE7 there is something strange happening with the blue in navCatTabsWrapper (or so it seems).

Please advise and thank you.

Please NOTE: The site is currently down for maintenance as I am not quite ready yet to accept sales, still preparing to go 'live'.

As such, however, the "strange happenings" still show up in 'down for maintenance' mode. So please take a look. Sometimes you have to F5 to refresh and 'reset the IE7 effects' ... if you will.

Again, thanks for all help and suggestions. I have to step out of the office for a bit but I will be back later today. Thank you.

Good advice, I am working on that now.

Please do explain the above error, I really have no idea how to fix the above error. Thank you.

The error is found in the code for you Search, at the top of the page.

I had presumed you coded / customized the template yourself? If not then start with this file:
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php

Thank you Website Rob for the info. All I did to make my own template was create the necessary override folders and do some CSS styling tweaks (quite a few in fact). I also have a good number of addons.

Anyway thanks for the info and the good advice

Looking at your original reply to my post, it looks as though these closing tags: </form></div> should be reversed; according to the order of the opening tags.

So instead of </form></div> it should be </div></form> - would you agree?

Thank you for your help

Yes, I would agree.

I was only pointing out the error, not the solution.
