Internet Explorer experiencing difficulties displaying elements

On occasion, my website (find-minecraft-servers.com) may appear distorted in Internet Explorer. Sometimes, the number under Servers Listed in the green-ish banner fails to display correctly, despite being present in the source code. This issue seems to be specific to IE10 and occurs intermittently. The website utilizes the Bootstrap framework. Below is the code snippet responsible for rendering the Servers Listed and other statistical elements:

<div class="banner">
        <div class="container" style="background: transparent;">
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-sm-4 text-center whiteborder">
                    <h1>
                        <?php
                            // connect to mysql
                            require('includes/mysql.php');
                            $totalplayers = mysql_fetch_assoc(mysql_query("SELECT SUM(players) FROM servers WHERE suspended=0"));
                            echo number_format($totalplayers['SUM(players)']);
                        ?>
                    </h1>
                    <h3>PLAYERS ONLINE</h3>
                </div>
                <div class="col-sm-4 text-center whiteborder">
                    <h1>
                        <?php $totalservers = "SELECT * FROM servers WHERE verified=1 AND enabled=1 AND suspended=0"; echo number_format(mysql_num_rows(mysql_query($totalservers)));?>
                    </h1>
                    <h3>SERVERS LISTED</h3>
                </div>
                <div class="col-sm-4 text-center whiteborder">
                    <h1>
                        <?php echo number_format(mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM votes")));?>
                    </h1>
                    <h3>TOTAL VOTES</h3>
                </div>
            </div>
            <br />
        </div>
    </div>

Answer №1

Based on the fact that the <h1> and <h3> share the same accompanying div, and considering that the h3 consistently displays while the h1 has issues, it is likely that the problem lies within the CSS specific to the h1 element.

The only direct CSS associated with the h1 is:

h1{margin:.67em 0;font-size:2em}

Although this CSS appears to be correct and validates without errors, there may be a possibility that the "0" value in the margin property is causing an unexpected behavior in Internet Explorer.

When tested in an IE6 emulator, the display appears broken but the server number still shows up.

It is worth noting that font-size support dates back to IE 5.5.

In conclusion, the issue is most likely specific to your setup. If it is not a user-specific problem, it could be related to a particular detail in the CSS causing IE to malfunction when executing those particular rules. Perhaps there are additional style rules in your CSS file causing unintended effects, although the code structure itself does not seem optimized for maintainability. Overall, the likelihood of another rule conflicting in your CSS is low.
