Hi guys, I've been using FireFox for a while and everything seems to be working well so I haven't checked my Oxwall site on my IE8 browser in a while but today I did and noticed a few things are not working. Is it just me with these problems?

So far this is what I've found:
1. can't delete Latest Activity (no delete button visible) and wall posts (delete button visible but doesn't work).
2. When embedding youtube video, the video does not show on IE8 but shows on Firefox.
3. Custom Text/Html embedded image does not resize to fit in box on IE8 but it does in Firefox (shown below).

Did you try the compatibility mode in IE?
I did have google ads on my main page and it messed with the main page really bad! It could be the youtube videos messing with the page. (and I dont like IE)

Try removing the videos. See if that fixes it then take things one step at a time to see what is causing the prob.

Did i mention, IE8 sucks! (IE9 not much better)
