Why does this happen

Hi,

 

I've got an issue with one of my pages:

 

http://www.thelondonfiltercompany.com/filters.php?filterid=34

 

This appears fine in every browser other than IE8 where, for some reason, it decides to shove the main page content into the side bar and turn it into a link.

 

I've been battling with this for hours, I'd just see if there is anything I am missing here!

 

Thanks

 

James

this is most definitely not a PHP problem, its an HTML problem.. That and possibly a JavaScript problem aswell, considering in IE there are two errors that occur :) syntax errors.

 

My guess would be that you did not properly close an <a> tag somewhere.. For the most part modern browsers sometimes fix simple errors, where as IE doesn't try, it just makes the page however you tell it to be made :)

 

also note: IE doesn't support CSS properties like min-height max-height, and all of the CSS3 properties.

looking at the page source you have...

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> 

<head> 

at the top and on line 206

<head> 

 

line 430

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> 
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> 
<head> 

 

at the bottom of the page

 
</body> 
</html> 
</div> 

<div id="FILTER_Compare_Bar_Bottom"></div> 
</div> 
<div id="content_bottom_bevel_light"></div> 
</div> 
<link href="stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> 

<div id="footer"> 
  <div align="center">© 2010 London Filter Company</div> 
</div> 


</body> 

</html> 

 

Just shows how good the Mozilla browsers are to display anything .....

 

Are you really using MSWord to create the page?
