Hilarious rendering glitch with CSS in IE where the background image inexplicably contains the style "display: block."

Encountering a curious issue with how IE is interpreting my css. The defined style includes "background-image: url(/images/leftArrow.png); DISPLAY: block; cursor: pointer;"

However, IE 7 & 8 seem to be merging background and display as one property (refer to screenshot)

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to remedy this?

Answer №1

When utilizing the developer toolbar, it appears that way only. Constructing a simple span with those specific css attributes does result in it displaying like a block element. However, my developer toolbar showcases the same outcome as depicted in your screenshot.

The issue at hand is not related to the uppercase name (developer toolbar automatically converts the display attribute to uppercase), nor are the quotes surrounding the URL problematic. Even when repositioning display:block to the beginning of the styles, it will still demonstrate them combined within the developer toolbar.

Answer №2

Have you considered incorporating quotes within the URL?

url("/images/leftArrow.png");

Adding more code would certainly enhance the overall functionality.

Answer №3

Chances are there's a small error lurking in the code, like a missed character or incomplete statement. Share your code with us so we can offer more targeted assistance.

Answer №4

I believe the reason for this issue is due to the usage of uppercase property names. The same problem can be seen with "POSITION" mentioned below. By the way, do you know how I can obtain a Firebug-like addon for Internet Explorer?
