Website not working well on IE 7

I have this website, http://www.escuelita.info. Now I tried many times to make it work on IE 7 (possibly IE6 too didn't check) but for some reason the middle frame on the right doesn't show content. If you compare it to Firefox or Chrome (or even IE8) it works ok. I need to fix this but I'm not sure what's causing the problem.. Note I ...

Can IE7/8 display position:relative elements in front of position:absolute ones?

I have a layout based on absolute positioning and a CSS-based menu in the header area. Everything works fine in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer 7 and 8, the menu dropdowns are covered by the content area. IE simply does not honour the z-index property in this case. I read about stacking contexts and the z-index bug, but still could no...

IE7 Duplicating text in tumblr blog posts

Alright, I thought I had seen every bug out there for IE7, but I've never seen this. This is my first Tumblr blog, so I have limited experience with that. I hope someone can help!

IE7 body width increases with floated element

In IE7 standards mode rendering, a strange thing happens with the following body: <body> <div style="border: 1px solid black;"> <span style="float: right; font-style: italic;">some text to the right</span> other text to the left </div> </body> The body width doubles, even though the <div> width looks correct.

How does browser choose media type to filter CSS links?

A page on my site has a link to a stylesheet for media="print". <link rel="stylesheet" href=".../print.css" type="text/css" media="print" /> Most browsers correctly ignore this link when rendering for a screen, but IE7 includes the file and processes the style rules, rendering the page inappropriately for a screen display.

[IE7 jQuery] link click(): jQuery function body not reached .

I'm trying to align the height of a sidebar div by the height of another div, accessed (show/hide) by clicking on a link. The solution I've implemented so far is to attach a function to each click, and set $('').height(height) for the sidebar div. 'Course, it doesn't work in IE7, although it's great in IE8 and firefox. JS code: fu...

I have a CSS drop down menu (with a small footprint of javascript to accommodate IE). This menu works absolutely perfectly, as designed, in every browser except (you guessed it) IE7.

Jquery scrollTo issues in IE7

Hello, I have a page that uses jQuery's scrollTo plugin to manage some functionality.
