IE 6 display issue

[danheberden]

If you aren't planning to support IE6 feel free to delete this. Though the previous version worked in ie6 aside from the loading issue that is now resolved. Thank you, btw, for your good work in that fix! :)

The issue is the div that holds the image is actually growing that big - so scrollbars are forced on the page as well as like 10-15px of padding.

although ie does through a js error (invalid argument) of course it's of no help in tracking WHERE that line happened.. line 117, there IS no line 117 - lol

Hi Dan,

Unfortunately, no, I don't plan on supporting IE6 for backstretch. Though, I would like to nudge you in the right direction if I can.

Are you using the regular or minified version of backstretch? I find that it's much easier to troubleshoot with the non-minified version installed. Also, I'd start off by using CSS to put a border around the #backstretch and #backstretch img elements. That way, you can narrow down whether or not it's a CSS issue or not. If it's not CSS, then my first recommendation for JS would be to pass in "false" for the centeredX and centeredY parameters. Maybe backstretch is miscalculating the width/height of the window?

Hope that helps.

Best of luck,
Scott
