Yeah, I've looked into it a bit, but I haven't tackled the issue. Basically, IE does not always collapse empty tags, which, if I recall correctly, is not actually a wrong interpretation of the specifications, but happens to differ from how the rest of the others do it. Whether it's wrong or not, it is a difficulty and it is Jifty's problem.
<br><br>Our clients are primarily IE users as well and I haven't gotten far into fixing it because I haven't had a chance to read through the JavaScript that handles the canonicalization and error handling that inserts text into the empty DIVs causing the ugliness.
<br><br>The solutions I've thought of involve either not rendering the DIVs at all unless they need to be filled and then adding code to fill them when ever the Ajax routines run, or set display to none and make them appear during the Ajax stuff.
<br><br>Jesse or others that have dealt with the JavaScript involved may have better ideas, but that's just not a part of Jifty I've read through yet.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 8/1/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">

Hello all,<br><br>Has anyone come up with a work-around to this problem with IE?<br><br>Our client is viewing this more as a problem with our application than with IE<br>(since they and their clients mostly use IE).<br><br>
We will need to implement a work-around, if somebody does not already have<br>one. Is the problem simpler in the case where AJAX is not needed (as in our<br>case)?<br><br>Any help would be appreciated.<br><br>Thanks,<br>
