Strange Display in IE

[quigs72]

Hi All - my site, http://www.marriedinmilwaukee.com, display is messed up in Internet Explorer, but it looks fine in Chrome and Firefox.

I haven't made any major changes to the site, other than updating WP, Genesis and some plugins, but I tested those updates on my test site which is currently displaying fine in all browsers.

Any ideas on where to start troubleshooting?

you have some invalid HTML. The biggest issue is the missing closing tags.

Thanks Nick. I cleaned all of that up (other than the alt tags) and I'm still having the same problem in IE. Any other ideas?

FYI - this was fixed by updating all wordpress files from a backup. My hosting company said it was probably caused by a wordpress exploit of some kind.

glad they found that. You may want to make sure it isn't lingering.

• Replace all WordPress files except the wp-config.php file via FTP with a new clean download from wp.org (though it sounds like your host already did this)
• Delete all themes you aren't using including Genesis
• Delete all plugins
• Upload a new copy of Genesis and remove any malicious code from the child theme. Since the child theme is simple it should be easy to identify code that wasn't part of the original theme or code you added.
• Log back into WordPress and change your password
• remove any users you don't recognize
• upload your plugins again, make sure they are clean copies
• change FTP passwords and do a virus scan on your computer and any other computer that has FTP or admin access to the site.
