Hi

For me this problem is not severe, so I have not reported this.
But I know this problem too.

Anyway IE8 may be OK (at least in my enviroment).
IE8 Compatibility View fails this.
Of cource this means IE6 and 7 fail also.

Regards,

We changed the following file as a workaround:

show.html.erb:

<snip>

<% if @folder.nil? %>
<%= link_to("Editieren", {:action => 'edit_root', :id => @project}, 
:title => l(:link_edit, :title => l(:link_documents)), :class => 'icon 
icon-edit') %>   
<% else @folder.nil? %>
<%= link_to("Edit", {:action => 'edit', :id => project, :folder_id => @folder 
}, 
:title => l(:link_edit, :title => h(@folder.title)), :class => 'icon 
icon-edit') %>   
<% end %>
<%= link_to ("New Folder", {:action => 'new', :id => @project, :parent_id => 
@folder }, 
:title => l(:link_create_folder), :class => 'icon icon-add') %>
</snip>

It seems that IE6 cannot handle the Icons with NO Text. Instead of "New folder" 
or "edit" you could also use something like: ":link_create_folder".

regards

Truth is I don't like IE6 so I probably won't spent time on this. If somebody 
sent me a patch I will test it and include it. Solution suggested above is the 
same what was proposed in Issue 133

This problem also manifests itself on IE8 and IE9 when run with compatibility 
mode enabled for intranet sites enabled.  This is quite standard in a lot of 
organisations.
