Could be CSS - background color change not in IE

I'm not sure why IE isn't processing the body background. You have a style tag with

<style type="text/css">
body { background-color: #702C53; }
</style>

and it works in Firefox but not in IE, even though it's after the IE conditional comment. I found that if I moved it to the last item before the </head> tag it worked in IE9, perhaps something in the scripts was affecting IE.

<style type="text/css">
/*body { background-color: #702C53; } ......moved down below*/
</style>

<style type="text/css">.recentcomments a{display:inline !
important;padding:0 !important;margin:0 !important;}
</style>

<style type="text/css">.broken_link, a.broken_link {
text-decoration: line-through;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">var analyticsFileTypes = [''];
var analyticsEventTracking = 'enabled';</script> 

<script type="text/javascript">var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-470187-29']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageLoadTime']);
(function() {
	var ga = document.createElement('script'); 
ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
	ga.src = ('https:' == 
document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + 
'.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
	var s = document.getElementsByTagName
('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();</script> 
<style type="text/css">
body { background-color: #702C53; } /* ..........moved here */
</style>
</head>

I found that even if I added background-color: #702C53; to the ie stylesheet it still didn't work in IE.

You have a real jumble of style tags in the head section, but the style tag with the background should have worked as it was one of the last ones.

I'm just surprised that you just don't delete the account along with a couple of others because they have nothing useful to say in regards to other valid users questions.

 

You have a point, I just thought I'd give them another chance and hope they figure out the purpose of the forum - or go away on their own.
