Yoo Nano: Internet Explorer8 crashes

Hi
I have now spent days to finish a website. During the presentation of the great catastrophe IE8: persistent crash ....? IE8 closes the tab and simply refuses to view the site. Did it a "jQuery Easy" plug-in installed, same result.

http://yootheme.com/support/question/8151 here I like what I read, there is no answer.

following:
I would like a picture in the background over the top.
I try to install it in custom.css, see the code above.
IE8 crashes every time, no matter whether I use a JPG, GIF or PNG.

I also tried to include the image in base.css, anywhere, always the same.

I mean, a simple change I've made ​​many times before, but never had such problems.
Ok, IE is crap, but something is still totally wrong.

body {  color:               #444;  
font:                12px / 18px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;  
background-image:    url("verlaufoben.png");  
background-repeat:   repeat-x;  
background-position: 0 0 }

Image

when i remove the background Picture, there is no problem...

Hi
ich habe nun Tage verbracht eine Website fertigzustellen. Bei der Präsentation auf IE8 die grosse Katastrophe: andauernder Absturz....?? IE8 schliesst einfach den Tab und weigert sich, die Site anzuzeigen. Habe es auch ein "jQuery Easy" Plugin installiert, selbes Ergebnis.

Joomla 2.5.3 / Nano 1.0.10

http://yootheme.com/support/question/8151 hier habe ich was ähnliches gelesen, Antwort ist dort keine.

Hoffe nun auf etwas Support, wozu zahlt man schliesslich...? :-)

da ich zu faul bin in englisch zu schreiben, hier einfach die Google-Uebersetzung

  • Joomla
  • Warp Theme
  • Nano

Does the current site crash with IE8?
Currently your site displays well in my IE8.

Hi,

it seems you protected your site with a PW again. If you like, you can add your login information to the "hidden information" textarea, which appears if you edit you initial question. Information provided there will only be visible to our support team.

thank you Sven

i tested it with a Mac Powerbook and with an iMac. Both with Windows XP (Bootcamp) and they crashed (Closed Tab in IE, with some information, wich will be sent to MS).

I have at the moment no other computers to check it out.

so, i tried it on 2 other computers: Windows XP with IE8 crashes definitely.
The progress stopped by loading the background picture

This is really strange,
my IE8/XP does not crash on your site and it does also work fine with my installation of the nano theme.
If you believe this is caused by your background-image please try to create that image with different software or remove the background for the internet explorer 8.

you could add the following to css/ie8.css:

body { background-image: none; }

Sven

hu? i'm sure i was posting an answer yesterday....??

i tried your Solution Sven, but it only works, when i add the none-image-code in the ie.css....
so generally all IE comes without background.

even on my wifes businesscomputer with xp and IE8 the tab crashes.

i can not understand, why a small change in the css makes this problems...?

thank you for help

I'm getting the same effect. IE8 on XP crashes with PNG in background.
Setting

body { background-image: none; }

in css/ie8.css isnt working. jQuery is loaded first and i have the latest warp framework.

Hi,

after days of debugging I finally got to this post... IE8 v 8.0.6001.18702 was also crashing at my customer in a Citrix environment. It was NOT crashing in the same IE8 on my machine. We reproduced the same environments with virtual pcs on different computers and on one of them the browser crashed as well! finally we could reproduce it. After a lot of testing we concluded that the yoo master theme was the problem, as another template worked. Eventually it was the background image in the body class what made the browser crash!

Why? I don't know, but it was a hell of a job to find it!
