My site is not rendering correctly.  It's to the point that it's unreadable using IE 8.  Can you please provide suggestions?

The tab box should only have 2 rows.  Also there is a custom module for a logo but it doesn't appear. This is happening in IE 9 as we'll.

Hello,

Two things could be causing the tab show issue:

1. Some was modified in the template. If so, i would recommend reverting back to the original css.
2. There is a third party script causing a conflict.

The default code will not perform like this in IE8/9, I have verified on our live demo.

For the logo issue you can try adding a width and height to the area:

#s5_logo_module {
height:100px;
width:200px;
}

And adjust the sizes accordingly.

Turning off multibox seems to have worked. With the tabs issue. I've got a google tag manager code inserted in the index.php that I will remove and see if that effects it as we'll.

It's the multibox! I'm not using it so for this sites purpose it doesn't matter  but can you tell me why it's not working?

Hello,

Multibox is a script as well so it is possible that one of your 3rd party scripts and multibox are clashing with each other and causing a conflict. I tested this on the demo and multibox was working properly in all versions of IE, even versions as old as IE8. Since you don't need it the best solution would be to disable it for your site.

Ok. So I guess there is a conflict with the google tag manager and the multibox on IE 8 and 9? It works fine in IE 10 and 11.  The only problem here is that i tested it without the google tag code and it still didn't work.  Something else has got to be the problem.  That's the only 3rd party script I added.

Hello,

I'm not sure why it would conflict on your site like that. Multibox is also enabled on our demo and a localhost host install that I have setup and there are no issues showing up for me IE8/9 with the script enabled.

I have something else that I will test and I will report back.  I changed some of the Tab css code so that it would style properly for my site.  I will play around with this and report back.  That's the only other thing that you mentioned it could be so hopefully that is the culprit.
