Simplemodal not working correctly in ie8 - internet-explorer-8

I've grabbed the exaple code for simplemodal straight off the simplemodal site. While the examples on that website work fine on ie8 from that website, after I copied and pasted everything into my own page (and copied over the relevant js files) the modal window opens at the bottom of the html page, not centred over the top of it. This only happens in ie8 - it works fine on Safari in both iOS6 and OSX. Any clues?

Most probably IE8 is opened in quirks/compatibility mode in your case. Use IE Developer Tools to manually control rendering mode. It is also possible to force IE to render in standard mode.

Firefox won't display an image unless the web inspector is open

Firefox sometimes hasn't been displaying my website's logo image. There's nothing in the code I can find that would make this happen. From what I can tell, the image displays fine in WebKit, and displays fine when the FF web inspector is open, and displays fine after a hard reload (Ctrl+R), but sometimes won't appear after a soft reload. When I right-click on the image, or open the web inspector, the image suddenly appears, as if it had been there the whole time. What could be causing this?
i think it can be something about page resizing.
When you open the webkit your website browser window change dimension, and you see the logo.
maybe this two things are connected.
try to resize the browser window without opening the webkit.
hope this works to catch the problem.
I tried disabling all the Firefox plugins, thinking it was some extension that was causing this, but no luck. I finally got it to work as expected by completely resetting Firefox using this guide.

Unable to highlight text in textboxes in IE9

I have C# MVC web app that has some textboxes that in IE9 you can enter in text, but you can't highlight via the mouse or via holding shift and the arrow keys.
I've looked around on the web and i've found other people experiencing this, with no solution.
One site i found claimed it was an issue with IE9 on pages that make multiple AJAX calls, which my site has but, removing AJAX really isn't a solution.
Is there a way via code or via settings in IE9 so that users can highlight text in a textbox? Or is this an outstanding bug in IE9?
Edit:
The website works perfectly fine in chrome
Turns out it was a rogue jquery statement that was
(.someClass).disableSelected()
that was disabling selection on every single textbox in my site. The kicker being that IE and Chrome handled it one way and Firefox a different way making it seem like a different bug
I had the same issue.
Select Tools on the IE bar / F12 developer tools. under the tab ( Document Mode IE9 standards ) check marked Alt+9. Closed the developer box. Closed IE9 opened it back up and everything worked as it should.
Hope this helps.

Second Google+ button invisible in Firefox

We have Google+ buttons one of our website. They are showing fine in all browsers except Firefox. The button above the article works fine, but the button below is invisible in Firefox. Can't find why this is the case, does anyone have some ideas on how to fix this?
You can see the problem on the live website at http://www.cyprusexpat.co.uk/article/id:266/insolvency-law-in-cyprus
After inspecting the HTML once again I noticed someone added the script-tag that you need to insert for the Google Plus button twice. This is not as it should be and Firefox stops rendering Google Plus buttons after the second script-tag.
So I removed the duplicate script-tag and all browsers, including Firefox, are rendering the buttons fine now!

DNN page render correctly in IE7/Vista

I have a dot net nuke site that I have written a custom module for. It a form that users fill out to submit information - no big deal.
On the form, I use the Ajax and the Ajaxoolkit for validation, and a calendar popup. I enable/disable controls based on form data.
Everthing works well in every browser/OS combo that I have tested EXCEPT IE7/Vista.
The page renders with most of the lables and conrols invisible. The controls are there and you can even enter data, you just can see them.
Here is a link: http://www.gpusbc.com/test/tabid/76/Default.aspx
I develop on a Win XP machine with IE7 and FireFox and there are no problems.
FireFox on Vista has no problems.
FYI this doesn't work in IE8 on Vista in regular or in compatiblity mode. This is incredibly weird because the controls are there you can click in them but your textboxes for example if you type you don't see the data.
What I've found is that if you remove the float:left style which is inherited from the .aaInput class that all of your inputs become visible. I also removed your display of
block. Do this on both the labels and your inputs and you should be good.
I tested this with IE8's developer tools in both IE8 mode and compatibility mode.
