wildteen88 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Its mainly to do wit your CSS. It is not a good a idea to use positioning when doing a CSS layout, especially when you're trying to center a layout. it is best to use auto margins.The following is your new CSS:[code]body { background-color: #666666; color: #FFF; font-size: 12px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;} a:link, a:visited, a:hover, a:active { color: #FFF;}#container { width: 707px; margin: 0px auto;}#head { width: 707px;}#head img { display: block; }#box1 { width: 345px;}#content { width: 697px; text-aligh: justify; background-color: #2D3855; padding: 5px;}#quote { width: 697px; text-aligh: justify; background-color: #2D3855; padding: 5px;}#foot { width: 707px; font-size: 9px; text-align: center;}[/code]Also you'll want to add to add:[code]<body><div id="container">[/code]before:[code]</head>[/code]and you'll want to put:[code]</div>[/code]before:[code]</body>[/code]In your HTML.Another thing you'll want to do is clean up your html code by removing the font tags, center tags. Extra line break tags ([nobbc]<br>[/nobbc]) use padding/margins instead rather than adding masess of line breaks to pad out areas etc. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/20370-my-site-code-wont-work-well-with-ie/#findComment-89721 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildteen88 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 In your HTML change[code]<body><div id="container"></head> </center></div></td>[/code]To this:[code]</head><body><div id="container">[/code]You'll also want to fix up the HTML issues I suggested too.
