Hi Jennifer,
 
Could this be part of the problem as well?

He says that the bug affects both IE6 and IE7.
 
I'd be interested to hear whether Mika's fix worked too. 
 
# Mika, if you're fix worked, could you explain why setting the div
height works?
 
Thanks
Gary

        Subject: [Dspace-tech] XMLUI, javascript and IE
        
        
        Realising that this is outside the scope of dspace, we have a
problem related to a javascript for our xmlui on ie. The following code
we find works perfectly in firefox, but does not display the background
image in ie (specifically IE6, just tested in IE7 and 8 and it works
fine). This is a script to display a random background image on the load
of the page.
         
        The code is:
         
           <div class="TSbannerImg" id="TSbannerImg">
            <script>
             maximumBannerImages = 12;
             bannerNumber =
Math.floor(Math.random()*maximumBannerImages);
        
document.getElementById('TSbannerImg').style.backgroundImage =
'url("/themes/TerritoryStories/images/random/ts_MidImg'+bannerNumber+'.j
pg")';
            </script>
           </div>
         
        and in the css:
         
        .TSbannerImg {
         background-image: url("../images/random/ts_MidImg1.jpg");
         background-repeat: no-repeat;
         padding-top: 150px;
        }
        
         
        If anybody would be able to give a hint about this, it would be
greatly appreciated.
         
         
        Thanks
