Hi folks,
I have a (common) problem with IE9 (probably others also):
It doesn't show the CSS layout, only the plain text from the site.

Any ideas what could cause this and how to solve?

What template are you using?
Did you try with default joomla 2.5 templates? Which ones?
Link to the site please?

I've found this solution, but not sure if it would help, let's see.

Quote:
5. Unstyled version of web page appearing in IE

When your website loads up in Internet Explorer, does an unstyled version of the page appear for a second or two, before the styled version kicks in this? If so, your website may be suffering from what's known as the Flash Of Unstyled Content (or FOUC).

If you're using the @import directive (e.g. <style type="text/css">@import "styles.css";</style>) to call up your CSS file then this phenomenon may be happening on your website in IE. It's weird, there's no logical explanation for it, but this problem obviously needs to be fixed.

The simple solution to this illogical problem is an equally illogical solution - insert either a link or a script element into the header:

<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css" type="text/css" media="print" />

It doesn't matter which one you insert (or even if you insert both). If you provide a print stylesheet, using the link element to reference it (as indicated in the example above), then you'll never see the FOUC phenomenon.

According to the code, it seems like you are using this template http://www.joomla51.com/joomla-templates/j51-oxygen

make sure the template is current and not an old version.

However I checked your site with both IE8 and IE9 and I really can't see css differences compared to FF 12?

Thanks, it only happens with certain visitors and I also got it on location.

How about you modified your ie9 View -> Style to no style?
Otherwise try clearing your ie cache and resetting your ie9... your site does not look perfectly identical to ff and chrome now, but your css does show on ie8 and ie9

yes, it does not show in IE, that's the problem (almost), because sometimes it does, then it doesn't.
It's not related to my browser, it's all IE browsers in the world :-)
that the problem !

I just viewed your site with IE9, and the only problems I can see is that the page is left-aligned, instead of centered.

Are you using a separate IE-only stylesheet?

I would be willing to help you, but need more specifics about the problems you are experiencing, as I cannot seem to replicate them with my IE9

Thx Moonfire.
Check the difference with Chrome or FF.
The menu is also not working.
I asked the template provider to check it, if I don't get any help from it, are you willing to help out? I will give you more details in PM then.

I checked it against Chrome. I see what you mean about the menu. Is the dropdown effect CSS or Javascript (JQuery/Motools)?

I am willing to help, but it will have to be after my workday is finished (6 pm EST). If that's acceptable, then go ahead and PM me.
