I don't know where else to turn for input on
this. I closed out of Wikipedia
last evening - everything was fine. This morning, I tried to access it and
the entire page is a mess. The WP Globe and contents selections are
superimposed over the page, and I don't have access to the log-in or other
such buttons. I tried to access WP via a Google search, and got the same
thing.
Is anyone else experiencing this? How can I fix it?
First of all: please upgrade to the latest version of IE if possible.
Many modern Web features are not supported by IE5. I will fix this
mistake immediately, but other website authors might not be so quick
to respond. Not many website authors have IE5 installed to test with.
Second of all: this is an error on my part. I changed the format of
the Monobook stylesheet to add better support for handhelds, but
unfortunately the way I chose to do so was problematic for very old
browsers. I'll fix it now. It might be an hour or two until this is
fixed on-site.
Thank you very much for the explanation. In the world of computers I am very
much in awe of the experts.
Thanks again,
Marc Riddell
