When you click on a picture using Explorer the image doesn’t appear. http://vapersplace.com/forum/e-liquid/do-you-diy-contest-by-vapeteam-and-atmos-labs/#p1884 It works fine in Firefox, Chrome and Safari. How do I fix this? Thanks.

I don’t know if this is the cause but, for me, on the forum page and your home page IE reports an error with Add to Homescreen.
“‘language’ is null or not an object add2home.js?ver=3.4.2, line 15 character 2”
Looks like a buddypress thing?
When you load a page do you see “Done with errors on this page” in the bottom left of IE? I am seeing it.
yes and a lot of generated html errors… malformed incorrect tags…
and the image is really there – just the popup box has no height… and IE is such a crappy browser that I am having a hard time inspecting the html/css to see what is causing the height issue…
could be the error mentioned by Brandon…

That is Buddymobile. Now I know where it is coming from. Thank you for the help.
I disabled BuddyMobile but it didn’t solve the problem. I also can’t stand Explorer but unfortunately lots of people still seem to use it
I am still getting the add2home.js error from buddy mobile.. which is stopping all js from running…
you also have a plugin or theme generating some malformed html:

not likely to stop js processing but curioius none the less… since several of those deal with img tags… almost like something messing with image tags…
As I said, the image is there, I can click on it and it will open in new window… its just 1px high… and IE wont let me inspect the html to see why…
I have users starting to complain about this problem also. Works fine on my iPad; but not on my Dell PC with IE. Any new news to report? Thanks.
Dan Gould, This singular report we believe is because of many javascript and html errors.. is your site having similar errors?
a link to your site would help… and which version of IE?
I have changed the theme to the default theme and have deactivated all of the plugins and the problem still exists. Pictures don’t open when you click on them. Also, there is noTinyMCE either. In Google Chrome when you upload a photo it shows up as a thumbnail and you can’t click on it to expand it.
Well, as I said, it most definitely does expand when clicked… but the image that is shown in the popup dialog box is only 1px tall so you cannot really see it… if I click on that 1px tall image it opens in a new window… this is not a general problem simple press is having with IE…
what we need to find out is why is the popup image only 1px tall… unfortunately, the IE developer tools are so bad they dont let you inspect the html/css/js in the popup window, so struggling to understand why its 1px tall… but still working it…
and you site is still showing those malformed html tags that I mentioned above… and its image tags that are getting malformed… also, because of these errors, the page will not validate either… the malformed image tags could easily be the problem if the image tag in the popup is being malformed too…
so when you switched to the default wp theme, did you clear your browser cache before trying again? IE is notorious for hanging on to cached items…
if so, then could you try deactivating your other plugins, clear browser cache and test once again to see if still happening… if not, then re-enable one by one and test until it breaks… then we can work that…

I didn’t clear the cache so I will try it again and clear the cache.
I cleared the cache this time and the problem still exists. The problem with the TinyMCE not showing in explorer is a problem with the Buddystream plugin. When I deactivate it the TinyMCE appears. Besides Buddypress, Buddystream is one of my most used plugins so I will send a message to Buddystream support and see if they can give me any info on resolving the problem. I also disabled a plugin I had called restore jQuery. I wonder if that was causing the errors.
It would also be worth seeing what happens when we release 5.2 later today (assuming wp releases 3.5)… we have changed our tinymce plugin to use the wp built in version of tinymce instead of our own unique copy… perhaps that will make a difference…
Its a bit weird how it only happens in IE… sure wish I could get the IE dev tools to let me inspect the popup so I could see what was driving the 1px display… guessing its the malformed html but dont know for sure that was occurring in the popup…
