I have a banner that displays out of line in IE. It is fine in Firefox. Could anyone suggest how I can get it to display properly in both ?
you can see the page in question at http://www.raysloan.com/pipemaking.html

Thanks for any help.

Spend a wonderful week here in the South West of France in sight of the Pyreness,
the Pays Basque and surrounded by the mountain streams of this region called
the 'Bearn Des Garves'.
<p>You will leave here with a fully playing practice set of Uilleann pipes which
would not have cost you very much more than a purchased set. In addition you
will enjoy the fulfillment of having made them yourself under my expert guidance,
you will not have had to wait for the usual 1 year delivery, and into the
bargain you will have had a wonderful weeks holiday here in France!</p>
<p>If you are interested in the Uilleann Pipes and do not want to make a practice
set perhaps you would prefer to make a couple of flat set chanters and do
reedmaking? If you have something you would like to do I can tailor a course
to suit you. If it is Scottish Smallpipes that you are interested in then
you will leave with a fully playing set of Smallpipes in your preferred pitch.</p>
<p>We are easy to get to and I will pick you up from the Airport. We are mid-way
between the two Airports of PAU and BIARRITZ both of which are serviced by
Ryanair</p>
<p>For full details please contact me either by telephone: 0033(0)559386816
