CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Here's a bizarre one I hope that someone can help me with...

--Using Internet Explorer 8.  Just uninstalled and reinstalled to make sure my copy isn't corrupted.  Running in Comparability Mode.

--CiviReport pages don't fully display.  For example, CiviReport --> Membership Report (Detail) displays up to "Report header" under "General settings".  That's the last thing on the page -- the box to the right is blank, and there is nothing but white space beneath.

--Firefox works perfectly.

--And, unfortunately, the CiviCRM Demo works fine.  So, I guess it's something wrong w/ my site.   

I searched the forums for an answer before posting.  Anything you can suggest would be most appreciated!

Thanks,

Does IE8 have any debugging / page validation / error reporting tools? Might be worth digging into that.

Dave,

It does -- and it was!  I didn't think of checking b/c no errors were reported.  Duh.

OK, I think I found it.  One of the help msgs contains HTML tags used for illustrative purposes:

<div class='crm-help'><p>The Report Header contains HTML code that will be output at the beginning of the document whenever this report is printed
or downloaded in PDF format. The default values will work for most situations. However you may want to enter the actual report title in the <title> tag (replacing "CiviCRM Report").
You can include a logo by adding an <img> tag. You can also modify the look and feel of the printed report by including a custom CSS file
(instead of print.css).</p>
<p>The Report Footer HTML code will be output at the end of the document. You can add any additional
footer text, replace the CiviCRM logo, or make other changes as needed.</p>
</div>
The word "the" before the <title> tag is the last thing on the page.  Can someone tell me how to fix it?  Thanks!

Thanks, Kurund (and Dave, for pointing me toward the debugging tool)!

I'll look into how to report issues -- I know I've seen it somewhere.  Is there a quick hack I can make to remove the tags in the mean time?  I hesitate to mess around w/ a huge code base that I don't understand...

[I wish that one of the browsers would win the browser wars.  I don't really care which one.  Developing for multiple browsers that each have quirks is a real time-waster.]

Works perfectly.  Thanks, Dave!
