First steps in making a site compatible with IE too...

[tubaplaya76]

Hello, and happy holidays,

I currently have this simple layout which works as I would like in Firefox. In Internet Explorer it does not. I was wondering what steps--an alternate stylesheet?--or what corrections would be need to be made. I'm not looking for specific code alterations, but perhaps a guide as to what works with firefox does not with IE.

the site is http://www.sirsocrates.com ; stylesheet is http://www.sirsocrates.com/style.css

Regards,
Sam

You need a system identifier: a fully qualified !doctype that includes a full URL. Otherwise, the document cannot be validated. Screenshot image:

One of my favorite places to go is in my sig "IE is 10 years behind..."
The other, for fixing specific IE bugs, is positioniseverything.net
