I received the following from a site visitor yesterday, and I don't have easy access to an imac to test any possible isssues, so if anyone can shed any light on the cause I would be grateful. Or, alternatively if any of you use imacs, a quick note on any known issues with eZPublish 3(.4) would be appreciated.

--------- From site visitor ----------
Unfortunately I do not seem
able to access your new site. I have an imac computer and my programme
is Internet Explorer. When I click onto your site, Explorer just quits.
I do not have problems with other sites. Can you advise?

Thanks in advance :)

If you are willing to post your URL I can try it out on my iMacs and see if it the problem can be reproduced. Email me from my website if you'd like.

Did you change much in the CSS files? Unfortunately IE on a Mac is broken; I faced the same problem (IE crashed) with positioning elements in our CSS files. Had to make a check on the browser to feed a much more simple style sheet relying on the original css with ezpublish 3.4.

Thanks for your comments Paul. Mark also agreed that CSS is the likely culprit, so I'll have a dig around and see if I can find the elemtn causing the issue :)

I posted sever mac fixes for CSS problems. Here is one that will fix the menu problem

Also I posted a problem with floating images. When you float an image in IE mac you need to specify both height and width of the floated object. You can look up my post on how i modified the template for this. Anyway it is very easy to make your site 100% mac compliant.

Hope this helps.
