Thanks so much for your reply and looking into this.
The CSS sheet you referred to is an external file I believe related to Blogger's own default templates we pick from. I don't know how to change it. I tried the ADD CSS in the template designer to override (opened the CSS file into notepad edited and pasted in the template designer in the Add CSS window) it had no effect, I probably didn't do it right .... and is probably beyond me LOL! I have no knowledge in CSS.
I did however switch to the old Minima template ( ICK! .. as I can't change it how I want it using the template designer) and the problem resolved in IE. I have kept it like this.
I tried just about ALL the templates Blogger has for their template designer and ALL have this problem. In a nutshell, pretty much all the older "after 2006" templates work but the new ones don't.
I understand this is really beyond your responsibility, any help would be appreciated. I am assuming correctly it is the actual Blogger templates and their associated CSS widgets that are affecting the cart?
Thanks, Tracey
