Internet Explorer 8 error
Closed

Comments

  • Yasunori started the conversation

    It stops loading in the Internet Explorer 8. Status bar is always stopping in the following display.

    "~ ~ /wp-content/themes/css/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix&v=3.2.1)..." Sometimes loading is completed, but it will stop again if I reload it. In order to make contacted URL easier to check, after installed the WORDPRESS, I have only enabled your THEME.

    In addition, the situation did not change even after making the necessary changes (menu, front page, plug-in) by importing dummy data. 

    The following is the Internet environment I utilize.

    Windows XP IE8 (no problem on other browser.)

    WORDPRESS:3.8.1–ja

    SALIENT Version:3.1

    PHP:5.3.20 MySQL:5.5.28

    Server charset:UTF-8

    Language:Japanese

    Please tell me how to respond to the above error.

    Hello Yasunori,

    this issue is only able to be replicated on the old IE like you're using (on IE11 setting the browser mode/user agent to IE8 doesn't yield this) which might be how it slipped by. Try opening your font-awesome.min.css file located in the css folder and changing this:

    font-family:'FontAwesome';
        src:url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?v=3.2.1');
        src:url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix&v=3.2.1') format('embedded-opentype'),
            url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg#fontawesomeregular?v=3.2.1') format('svg'),
            url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=3.2.1') format('woff'),
            url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=3.2.1') format('truetype');
        font-weight:normal;
        font-style:normal;

    to this:

    font-family:'FontAwesome';
    	src:url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot');
    	src:url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
    	    url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.svg#fontawesomeregular') format('svg'),
    	    url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
    	    url('fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf') format('truetype');
    	font-weight:normal;
    	font-style:normal;

    Cheers

    The weird thing is this behavior only happens for some users on IE8 - but it's apparently caused by the .eot font files. I'm currently looking into this:

    If you wanna take an early stab at it go for it :)

    Is there anyway you can allow me to log in so I can try doing another workaround for you?

    Cheers :)

    Thank you for the kindness.

    The issue is resolved !

    My check environment was IETester of Windows7, and WindowsXP installed in Mac.

    The problem was solved when checking in the native environment.

    However, your site did not have a problem in my check environment.

    There is no problem in your site and there was a problem in my site. 

    Why?

    But it was good that was satisfactory in native environment.

    Thank you so much.

    Hey again Yasunor! It's hard to say why it wasn't working in a simulator, but at least it's finally up and running where it matters - will note to download IETester and see if I can find anything else though :)

    Cheers!
