Posting not displaying properly in IE7 (Solved)
This post is for people who have issues with your blog posting, usually getting only half your page to display or missing sidebars only in Internet Explorer.
The reason is because you have copy your text directly from MS Word and paste onto your blog post WYSIWYG post editor. Some “not-so-friendly” html code will be auto-included by the WYSIWYG editor.
Troubleshoot:
Step #1
Go and edit your faulty blog post, check the HTML code by selecting the “HTML” tab
If you know how to read html, remove any funny HTML code that doesn’t belong there
If not carry on with step #2
Step #2
Go back to you Visual View by selecting the “Visual” tab
Activate all your mini icons first
Step #3
Select the whole article and cut (Ctrl+x) the whole post.
Step #4
Select the MS Words Icon, A text box will pop-up.
Step #5
Paste the code (Ctrl+v) into the text editor
Click on “Insert”, that’s it!
Summary
This error with IE7 will occurs because of the auto-include features of WP WYSIWYG text editor. Unlike Mozilla or Chrome browsers, IE browser behaves badly when they see the fuzzy formatting and assume it is bad programming and ignore the later posting.
Last but not least, if you were to copy any text from MS Words in future, do make use of the option available in the WP editor.
