Well, I fixed it in IE8. I'm not going to worry about IE7. Here's my code:
@media all {
#ie8 #iconsRectangle .wp-image-1144 {
margin-right: .2em;
}
#ie8 #homeBottWrapper {
width: 100%;
margin-top: -20px;
}
#ie8 .home .content-home-right {
float: left;
width: 73%;
}
}
I'm not worried about the responsiveness in IE8. If someone has a tablet or
iPad or mobile phone, they're not using IE8.
Thank you so much for your patient help!!! Client will be happy.
It wasn't the guy who coded the page (I think he did an awesome job), it's what
the client wanted. I told the client IE7 was unlikely, so I lowered his
expectations for that. He was cool with it.
