Need a WordPress fix...

by Freeman77 Posted: 16 years ago 5 replies

Part of my footer text is showing up in the right sidebar, but only in Internet Explorer 7 (still in widespread use). Probably previous IE versions too. Chrome and Firefox are fine.

Any help?

sounds like you are missing a closing div statement somewhere.. Possibly in your widgets or in the footer itsself..

Hard to tell without examining the site in question

  Thanks for the reply. I should have posted the link: Marin Marriage Family Therapist Angela Schneider Barkus, LMFT
  Here is the footer text:
  
  <div id="footer">
  <b>Copyright 2010 - MarinMFT.com - All Rights Reserved.</b>
  </div>
  
  </div>
  
  <?php wp_footer() ?>
  
  </body>
  </html>

You might consider running it through the W3C Markup Validation, to see what doesn't comply with the rules:

The W3C Markup Validation Service

  Bill's spot on about using validator.w3.org
  
  It reports 7 errors on your site, with one of the main ones being on line 119..
  
  There a dlosing DIV tag just after an opening <P> tag
  
  Not a good idea.. Maybe this is causing something to fall apart..
