Fred K:
Aha! Thank you m'sieu l'Inspecteur, I think I know what the issue is then. And if I'm right it should be fixed now.
(If I'm wrong, well, then I'm wrong. :D)

At this point in time... on my clock... the link(s) give me a blank, white page in IE7 (no, I am not upgrading IE to the next level(s) as I am getting tired of doing so... at least for the time being). Looks great with the Fox tho.  8)

Rui Mendes:
With IE8 I can not see too.
With Flock browser I can see perfetly
I like very much, congrats

Fred I don't know if you know, but there is code, and I use on my cms and works perfectly

--- Quote ---<!--[if IE]>
<script>
   document.createElement('header');
   document.createElement('nav');
   document.createElement('section');
   document.createElement('article');
   document.createElement('aside');
   document.createElement('footer');
   document.createElement('hgroup');
</script>
<![endif]-->

Fred K:
Thanks for the reports Doug & Rui. I've been over the code a few times and narrowed the IE problem down to this bit in the .htaccess which forces IE into edge/chrome mode.

--- Code: ---# Force the latest IE version, in various cases when it may fall back to IE7 mode
# github.com/rails/rails/commit/123eb25#commitcomment-118920
# Use ChromeFrame if it's installed for a better experience for the poor IE folk
<IfModule mod_setenvif.c>
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
BrowserMatch MSIE ie
Header set X-UA-Compatible "IE=Edge,chrome=1" env=ie
</IfModule>
</IfModule>

--- End code ---

That code was pulled from the HTML5 Boilerplate. I'm actually not sure that it's the root of the problem, but it is the only new IE-specific code I'm using, compared to other sites I've built. I've used the HTML5 shiv from google many times before, as well as various other conditionals without problems. This bit was new though. I've pulled it for the time being and also changed the base href line for IE, hoping that will improve things for you (IE) guys...

Rui, the code you suggested is more or less the same as the Google HTML5 shiv, which is already in use, except yours is missing a bunch of HTML5 elements (it's an aside, but anyway, yours is missing things like mark, time, details, summary, figure, figcaption, etc). Thanks anyway though.

Edit: Think I've found the issue ... I noticed that my 1st gen iPod Touch wouldn't load the site either sostarting looking more in detail at the head code and found one missing quote mark, on the charset declaration. I think that could be it. If so it has nothing to do with bleeding edge or IE at all, just sheer stupidity (or poor proof reading, whichever is more likely). Sorry. If indeed that was the cause. (The site loads fine on the iPod now, so, here's hoping...)
