check a form in IE?

[michaellunsford]

this form won't post anywhere, but the javascript in the first select box should change the options in the second select box.

My windows machine is still down (bad system board, I think), so I was hoping someone could give this the once over in IE. Mostly, I'm looking for appearance.

Best case scenario, the form text elements should fit nicely inside the circular images.
Worst case scenario, both the circular "background image" and the form element show up askew.
Somewhere in-between: words and letters inside the fields aren't quite where they need to be, but they're passable.

Thanks for feedback!

i personally thinks it looks better in ie - the dropdowns

You may be right. It actually doesn't look bad. Tweaking.

[b]edit:[/b] changed, and it does look ok with the square elements.

Thanks for the critique.

It shows in IE ok. BUT when I click search - it brings me a webpage - with a TON of white space on top. I have to scroll down nearly 1 screen height to see the results.

This is with IE6.

odd. I had actually tested that page in IE on this end. Can you post a screen-shot?

Edit: never-mind. I found a windows machine. Looks like I changed something that has dire consequences in IE.

Apparently, IE doesn't render float properly (or, at least the way every other browser renders it). Looks like I'll be making a post on the CSS board shortly.

Thanks for the heads up.

Okay, IE sense. If I have a div that's 100% wide, I can't float another div to the right or left of it, even if it's only 1px wide. Tweaked, should be displaying [u]better[/u] now (minus serious whitespace at top), but I still need to post this to the CSS board to figure out how to fix.
