  3. Screenshots are nice, but won't help me debug your problem. You need to post a URL to your form so we can check it out. I guarantee it's a theme-related problem because the forms format fine in IE with the standard styles.

    As far as the "None" - I've seen that before on a couple of occasions. Both times it's caused by the "DD Belated PNG" script that many people use to try to force PNG transparency support in IE6. Again, without a link to your form, I can't tell you anything for sure.

    If you're using that on your theme, try disabling it and see if it fixes your issue. IE6 is way past the end of it's life cycle and not worth trying to support with an old script.

  4. I have a form that shows fine in FireFox, but doesn't show at all in IE8. http://www.receptiondj.com - click on "Contact"

    I'll check in the theme as well, but need help on this ASAP. Thanks!

  5. HI DJ Tommy, it looks like you have several javascript errors on your IE page that are preventing the form from displaying. Here is the error message generated by IE:

    Resolving these javascript issue should also resolve the case of the missing form.

  6. It turned out to be a conflict with the Lightbox 2 plugin that I had installed. Apparently (as far as I could tell), it was loading a javascript library that was conflicting with some other library somewhere on the site. So, I deactivated Lighbtox 2 and verifed that fixed it, then I removed the plugin and instead installed one called "Simple Lightbox". Everything is working fine and I still have my lightbox effect.

    Thank you for your help!
