Why isn't my site working in IE?

Sent by Shane Porter on 24 February 2005 14:02


Hi there Andrew, 

one thing for a start is that you've spelt the doc-type incorrectly:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Tra__sn__itional//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Obviously, a validation will have found that, and other things, but this may be having an effect on
your site.

Shane.

Hi Andrew,

To start, validate your markup and style sheet. Your style sheet has a 
lot of unused styles. Removing all unused styles will simplify your 
search for the problem styles.

For the "buttons" navbar on the left try putting the entire list (<ul>) 
on one line. IE likes to add breaks with white space.

In Firefox on PC the container div doesn't contain the main div. You'll 
want to use a clearing technique(2) clear after the main div
