Please help!

Hi steveryan87,

The browser problem is because there is an unclosed tag on the page <!-- [if lt IE 6]> that hides everything until the comment before the ChronoForms tag line.

PS Sorry I wasn't here when you called -- but it was 3.30 in the morning here.

Hi Bob,
So do i completely delete the tags <!--[if lt IE 6]> & <!--[if lt IE 7]>
if so how do I do that within Joomla?
Will this just fix the issue within IE or Safari as well?
Sorry to be a pain but this is real urgent! Thanks again, I'll buy you a beer if we sort this out!

Hi steveryan87,

The tags come from ChronoForms - they are used to load the form template CSS. And normally they work OK.

Looking at the code on your page. I thinkt hat you have some form ocf caching set up for the js & css files - maybe that is causing the problem; or maybe your ChronoForms installation is corrupt (the lines in question are in chronocontact.html.php around line 38 and should read like this

			<?php if((!trim($MyForm->formrow->theme))||(trim($MyForm->formrow->theme) == 'default')){ ?>
                <link href="<?php echo $CF_PATH.'components/com_chronocontact/themes/default/css/'; ?>style1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
                <!--[if lt IE 6]><link href="<?php echo $CF_PATH.'components/com_chronocontact/themes/default/css/'; ?>style1-ie6.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><![endif]-->
                <!--[if lt IE 7]><link href="<?php echo $CF_PATH.'components/com_chronocontact/themes/default/css/'; ?>style1-ie7.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /><![endif]-->
            <?php
            }else{

PS This time is was 1 am when you called, not the best time to get an answer from me. Skype has this neat clock to tell you the time for the other person.

Hello, I have a similar problem, the form is not fully displayed in IE7 and all the fields are not aligned. I do not have chronocontact.html.php file, use the version 1.6 of chronoforms V4.
Here is a link to the page. Thanks for your help

Hi anter,

If I put your form into the default Joomla! template then it's OK. So I think that there must be a CSS problem between CF and the template in IE7.

Bob

Right... thanks! I solved
