Site in question: http://wellofallsparks.org

A member of the archive recently noted to me that the default gothic-style skin (named Cybertronian here) is not displaying properly in IE8. I didn't change much of anything save the images in the skin, so I'm not sure what's going on. Apparently the left sidebar is completely missing, the main page is blank, and the only links at the top of the page are Most Recent, Authors, Titles, and Search. I checked on the computers at my job that run IE8 and, sure enough, that's what was going on.

Does anyone know what might be the issue here?

edit: got the name wrong! it's the 'gothic' style, not 2-column that's displaying incorrectly!

It looks even worse in IE9, even if you click the compatibility button. I'm afraid of late IE is breaking a lot of skin layouts. I'm sure someone around here will figure out the magic code to add so IE doesn't kill the sites.

I just checked it out. Apparently I managed to have an extraneous ! in the comments which only got C&Ped on some occasions. Simple fix is to just open up header, index, footer and make sure the ending to the comments is just -->


Skins made by Kali are no longer supported!
