    Issues with Internet Explorer 8.0.6001

    After an automatic update through Windows, my version of Internet Explorer was updated to 8.0.6001.

    Now the top menu of NC will not display menu items - hovering/clicking reveals the box that should contain the links, but there's just empty space.

    Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone from Blackbaud know about this problem?

    Thanks,

    I have the same version of IE and it works for me. You could try clicking the IE7 compatibility view button to the left of the refresh button. I seem to remember that it's not there by default, but if not then there's an option on the tools menu.

    If patching BBNC isn't an option you can force IE8 to display in compatibility mode for all of your website users that use it (including yourself) - there's an example here. You'll need to have the ability to write things into the page head, though.
