I cant notice why IE is always load in Quirks mode and it screw the alligments. I have even delete the,

Code: Select all

<?php if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) && !strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE 6')) echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>'. "\n"; ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="<?php echo $direction; ?>" lang="<?php echo $lang; ?>" xml:lang="<?php echo $lang; ?>">
and replace it with,

in header.tpl as i have searched in google and found if we have any thing before the doctype it will load in quirks mode.

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
when i change the document mode to IE7 or IE8 explicity with developer tools the page is fine. Only problem is the quirks mode and IE start in that mode default.

Thank You

Try to use transitional. You can read this for reference.

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

in index.php
insert
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

save these code

than open IE9/8,view F12 doc mode,u can see the mode is ie9/8/7 standards

Don't change any header.tpl files.I think this is the best way
