Hi,
I am currently developing a site for a client which uses the JQuery cycle plugin to move through a number of divs which contain pictures and info about wedding dresses.
All works fine in Firefox, but when I test in IE6 + IE7 the divs are all stacked on top of each other vertically and they soan right down the screen for 1000's of pixels.
To me it seems like this is a problem with absolute/relative positioning or the z-index, I have also used a few floats in the child divs. I am also using SIFR for text replacement, could this be conflicting?
Here is my code, can anyone see a problem that would cause my cycle not to work in IE.?
