Hello people :tu:

I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or a chance to help me figure out why my website is positioned just fine in Mozilla, but Internet Explorer doesn't. What could be the cause of it, and could anyone show me how to get past this irritating problem between browsers. :td:

Here is my code, The positioning is fine in Mozilla, just not IE, this is my only concerns when it comes to making a website in css. :td:


P.S. Sorry for the long code, just looking for a way to get positioning to look the same as in Mozilla, with IE.

I did have all the code in the head section, in a style sheet, if it doesn't look right, sorry. But thank you for your time to help. :tu: :yell:

I use this and it centers my whole site in both. You can change the name and the width. For some reason the margin:0px auto centers it. Try this code out and see if it works for you.

It's not the way the whole site is positioned, it's the width and height that makes my site look different in IE. It looks aligned fine in Mozilla but in IE. A box that I have at a certain height/width in Mozilla takes on a different height/width in IE. Is there any way I can fix this? :tu:

Sorry for not explaining it well enough. :td:

try this link here:

MY LINK

And look at it in Mozilla, then in Internet Explorer. You'll see what I mean by the css box width/height moving around. Was wanting it to look the same as in Mozilla. :td:

I hope this helped some. :tu:

Your website looks fine in both IE and Firefox for me. IE does use a different box model than Firefox, so for instance the borders are on the outside in Firefox and on the inside in IE (might be the other way around). Same with padding.
