hi frank,

IE 6 is the bane of every webdesigner's existence. That said, here are a few suggestions.

Get yourself the IE Developer Toolbar. This helps you make some live edits to troubleshoot and works in much the same way as Firefox's Web Developer Toolbar and Firebug. It's not as good but it's something.

Did you get that drop down menu from the C5 Marketplace or did you roll your own? IE has it's own way of dealing with z-indexes. That could be a problem too. Try removing it for giggles and see if that helps with the layout issues in IE. If it does then at least you know what you need to harmonize.

Make sure all your sections have defined widths (IE hates nondefined widths and gets confused and pouty) and that you've cleared elements properly if you're using floats.

I noticed that you have two id's named "footer". In best practice, there should generally only be one unique id per page. might be causing a conflict but I doubt it. You have an ID named "body". It might be confusing IE. Shouldn't, but I'd change it to something else like maincontent.

You might also want to remove the inline IE conditional statements which might help but might be hurting you because specific table based content might be taking precedence over your css for IE's interpretation. I'd also get rid of some of the other inline css since that will override your external css settings.

good luck!

That info really helped me out..

hi frank,

i am basing my site off plain yogurt as well. how were you able to get rid of the header where it says concrete 5 site? ive been trying to mess with the header for quite some time now

If you just want to change the "wording" you can do that in the dashboard. If you want to remove it you will need to edit the header.php and remove the area that inserts it.

where can i find the header.php?

Located in the concrete folder:

C:\c5.4\concrete\themes\default\elements

hi, I am trying this fix but I don't have this downloaded to my computer and use the software online. When I did download concrete5 all folders are empty.

look more closely at the folder you downloaded. The second folder from the top reads, "concrete" all of the core files are in there. Open it up and scroll towards the bottom - there you'll see the folder titled "themes" the yogurt theme is in there in a folder called "default". So your path will look like this:
concrete 5.4.0.5/concrete/themes/default/
