My thoroughness is the bane of my existance sometimes. I typically use Firefox, but being a web designer, I feel the need to ensure cross-browser compatibility. There seems to be an issue with either the theme I’m using or the plugins or the html tags that prevents IE 6 (I haven’t even tried the others yet) from rendering my posts correctly. It definitely revolves around my syntax highlighter, but whether it is the html (ie, <pre>) or the javascript in the plugin, or the sheer length of the lines, or another plugin for that matter that is putting the kybosh on everything, I can’t say. In some cases, it just doesn’t highlight the code at all, in others it treats it like a quote, in others actually eats the code. I’ve been trying some combination that will make it all work, but nothing yet…grrrrr.
IE7 seems ok with the present template (Just another wordpress…)
Since I was going crazy trying to get the syntax highlighter plugin (tried 2 versions of it) to work with wordpress and play nice with all browsers, I went with a server-side solution. I’m using the Geshi php plugin now. I just haven’t updated old posts yet.
