March 30, 201115 yr Hey there, I have noticed that one of my site designs looks great in FireFox, Chrome, Safari but doesn't quite look right in IE. The floating DIVS are all over the place. Can you take a look and give me some advice on a quick fix? Cheers, jay Edited May 21, 201115 yr by MikeChipshop
March 31, 201115 yr If you put the UL for your navigation inside the header div you will probably be on a much easier track to getting it to work across browsers. The way you have it set up now is pretty hackish. For the feature/slideshow try using the full background: property in CSS instead of dividing it up into the longhand properties. Its the "Shorthand Property" found here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_background.asp That should put you on the right track for fixing your IE woes. You also really need to ditch the table for the content. What you have in there is NOT tabular data. Your method of getting your rollovers to work on your navigation also causes your page to not validate: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ck1ibiza.com%2FRoot%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0 jQuery could make your life a lot easier there.
March 31, 201115 yr Author Thanks for the feedback. Managed to adjust the site now. Just a couple of padding/margin css errors showing up in IE. Should I use conditional rules for IE to sort this out?
March 31, 201115 yr without rewriting the site, yes. Adjusting the margin in #containerbg will sort out things. (for IE only) Edited March 31, 201115 yr by zed

Make sure you have the full XHTML doctype defined. That should sort out the box model in IE6+ so the only thing you'd be tweaking (assuming things are properly coded) are little font rendering issues (where the font rendering changes the widths/heights of elements, etc.)
