Featured Image in Internet Explorer

    I’m using the featured image option for my posts. Everything looks great in Chrome but in IE8, the image is stretched so that it is of equal height and width.

    Here is an example of what I mean: http://www.sarsfield.org/wp/?p=1202

    I tried inspecting elements and seeing what values are being overwritten by the different classes and can’t seem to figure out how to consistently ensure that featured images are displayed properly.

    I don’t know if this is a theme issue but thought it would be a good place to start.
    Thanks.

    This is a known IE8 bug.

    If you need IE8 compatibility, give this CSS a whirl:

    img {
    width: auto;
}

    Let me know if that fixes it or not 🙂

    Seems to fix it!

    I’ll ensure it doesn’t affect any other pages since your suggested fix is not specific to featured images.

    Another issue I have with IE8 is the top menu not staying on one line after the language switcher image no matter how big the screen size. Is that a known bug as well?

    IE8 is a real pain in the butt to work with isn’t it…

    Hmm, that might be something in the language plugin that needs tweaking.

    IE8 is super difficult to debug, so I’m not sure why it would be doing that.

    Sorry I can’t be more helpful! Hopefully the language plugin author knows what’s going on.

    Let me know 🙂
