    Hello, I just updated IE7 to IE8, and came to realize that the user6 position in Ja Telline II is not working. It’s also the case on the demo ( http://www.joomlart.com/templates_demo.php?template=ja_teline_ii ). Even though I use Mozilla, my stats shows about 10% visitors on IE8, and I’m using those tabs quite a lot to display content… Is there a fix ? help!
    Thank you very much for any input!

    go to your admin and find your index.php file

    add this code into the head of that file <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=7″ />

    It works! Thanks. The code must be right after the <head>.

    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />

    You need to make the change to the index.php file in the templates folder, public_html/templates/ja_teline_ii (or whatever template you are using).

    My permissions were set for 555, which won’t allow you to change the code. You first must check your permissions and change to 755 (user needs to be able to write)

    JA needs to update the code in their template pronto since more and more people will be upgrading to IE8. I just downloaded the JA Teline code a few days ago. It should have been updated already.

    Also, JA needs to update the code on their own demo sites.

    I am afraid this does not work for me. The only effect I could see was the font of the template getting bigger and bolder (but it does not do that when I switch the compatibility manually).

    I inserted the code :

    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />

    In the <head> tag as instructed.
    I also checked that the code is indeed written to the file and this is what I see when I “view source”:

    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />

    Yet, the tabs are still collapsed like before.

    In fact, so far I ahve collected 2 such snippeta that Microsoft claims will fix the compatibility and neither works. This is one of the two I already had and indeed it doesn;t work on any of my sites.

    Yet, I see that others have found it helpful. iI am at a loss, but a fix woyuld be appreciated.

    By the way, in Teline III the file where you have to insert the snippet for compatibility (which doesn;t work for me, but seems to work for others) is not the index.php file.
    In the Teline III framework the build the template out of several incluides. The <head> tag you want is in:

    /layouts/default.php
