    Default IE Explosion

    I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me why my site looks terrible in Internet Explorer but fine in Firefox and Netscape.

    I'm not sure if it's a CSS problem or where to start looking.

    Thanks for looking!

    It looks like you closed a <div> tag you shouldn't have or removed a <br class="clearboth" /> from the header.

    I would look very closely at the common/tpl_header.php file and start there, as that appears to be where the problem is originating.

    Hope that helps.

    Yes, as well, you forgot a "; in your CSS. Look for:
    #navEZPagesTop {
    background-color: #000066
    <---add the ";"

    In the direction that Tina gave(tpl_header.php), did you mean to close off this statement?
    <!--<td align="center" class="headerNavigation"></td>-->
    If you did, you should remove it or put spaces like so: <!-- <example> -->

    Find this line as well:
    <li><a href="http://www.bluecrescentcreations.com">Site Home</a><a></a></li>
    Malformed URL, remove the extra <a></a> out of the closing tags.

    Thank you Tina and DogFusion! That seems to have done it.

    Next silly question, can you tell me how you found those problems so fast? Is there a program I can run to tell me when I do silly things?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    I also use a FF extention called FireBug. Those two things are very handy to analyse problems. It's just too bad I didn't have either before I had to go head first while weeding out problems. That's the only reason I use FF.

    You're welcome. One more hint to go, you have a syntax error still.. in that same line for "Site Home", the only thing is that the closing tag is backwards. <a/> instead of </a>.
