CSS looks bad in IE

Question

I am having a CSS problem in IE

This page looks fine in Firefox, chrome, opera....but on IE the "date bar" overlaps on the first <li> bar

Here : http://www.animefushigi.com/latest-episodes

CSS is as followed :

#content h2.other-posts {
    height: 31px;
    font-size:12px;
    line-height: 31px;
    background: #2c2b2b;
    padding: 0 10px;
    border: 1px solid #1b1b1b;
    color: #888888;
    margin-bottom:1px;
}

#content #other-posts {
    list-style: none;
    padding: 1px;
    margin-top:15px;
    margin-bottom:15px;
    margin-left: 20px;
}
#other-posts li {
    list-style: none;
    background: #151515;
    height: 30px;
    line-height: 30px;
    border-left: 1px solid #050505;
    border-right: 1px solid #151515;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #050505;
    border-top:1px solid #0f0f0f;
    margin-bottom: 1px;
    padding: 0 10px;
}

#other-posts li a {
    float: left;
}

The Wordpress PHP file is as followed :

<ul id="other-posts">

<?php
$postslist = get_posts('numberposts=50&order=desc&orderby=date');
foreach ($postslist as $post) : setup_postdata($post);
?> 
<?php the_date('', '<h2 class="other-posts">Added on ', '</h2>'); ?>

 <li><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
   <?php the_title(); ?>
   </a></li>

<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>

How can I make this all-browser friendly?

Answer 1

I would suggest you use IE specific conditional comments. That way you can target IE idiosyncrasies, with an IE specific stylesheet.

<!--[if IE]><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie/specific/css.css"> <![endif]-->

Answer 2

try:

#other-posts li { display:inline }

instead of applying the display rule to "li a". It's the list item that you want displayed inline, not the links inside.

EDIT : Extremely sorry. dun know where that 'without' came from.

Try Removing the float and specifying a width or height of the list.
