CSS Popup Image Viewer script not working in IE8

[michelle1977]

1) Script Title: CSS Popup Image Viewer

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/cs...-image-viewer/

3) Describe problem:

I've been using the above script for a while and it works very well. However, with the new Internet Explorer 8 the pop up images appear below the image next to it, instead of on top. Any ideas on how I can change the script so it works properly in IE8?

Anybody have a solution for this?

As far as I can tell in IE8 the only minor difference is that the enlarged image appears below its thumbnail, but this doesn't really adversely affect anything practically speaking. What if you modify the line in red with the change below:

.thumbnail:hover span{ /*CSS for enlarged image on hover*/
visibility: visible;
top: -40px;
left: 60px; /*position where enlarged image should offset horizontally */
}

Hi and thanks for your help. Unfortunately that doesn't solve it. The enlarged image appears above its own thumbnail, but below the other thumbnails on the page:

Any ideas?

Does anybody have an idea how to fix this?

I'll try a few things in IE8 with this script next week. Not sure if I can find an easy solution to the problem though. Currently on vacation btw.

Thanks, I really appreciate your help and it would be great if you found a solution for this. Ugh... I really don't like the new IE8...

I'm affraid i've got the same problem as Michelle1977.

The enlarged image appears above its own thumbnail, but below the other thumbnails on the page. I've tried to make some adjustments to the z-index settings but that doesn't seem to help.

Any help is welcome!

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hope you really enjoyed your vacation ddadmin!

But... (yeah, there's the 'but' )... have you had any time to look into this (for me really big) IE8 problem?

Hope to hear from you.

Hi there Michelle1977,

Have you found a solution to the popup image problem yet? I've tried all sorts of adjustments but nothing seems to work properly in IE8.

Hope to hear from you!
