Um, hello. I've been having some trouble with my site. In Firefox it appears great. But when someone views it in IE, it's mangled. I have no idea why it is doing this. Please help! My site is located here (http://wdueck.free-site-host.com/theterrifyingbetatestsitrunforyourlifeyouaregoingtodienowbecauseyoulookedinhere/). (please pardon the scary long URL)

Thanks in advance

You will never get IE to attempt to perform like modern browsers without a proper doctype. Use this one on your first line:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

See if that brings IE into line. However, you are using old techniques and markup such as BGCOLOR. Use the W3C validator to find any errors in your html and css.

Thank you, the doctype change seems to have fixed the problem.
