Wow, talk about a quick response - and aye, that'd work too, smoother even. I fear my development skills are honed a tad bit more to the backend side of things

It seems the same problem also prevented IE from showing covers & comments. At line 168 (in my version anyway) there's a "row.find('.comments').css('display', 'inherit');" - changing this to 'block' seems to fix it here
