    Default Need css help

    My main page does not line up in IE and header menu looks like it overlaps in FF. Looks like spacing is off. I have tried just about every combination I can and still not getting it.

    For misalignment issues in IE, Google for "Holly hack" and apply as needed.

    For the header menu sticking out, adjust the width of that element in the stylesheet. Since you have so many stylesheets, you might also check to make sure there are no conflicting definitions.

    Thank you for replying. I googled "holly hack" and added this to my stylesheet. It did not help. I still have misalignment issues in IE.

    Here is the code:
    h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6,p{
    position: relative;
    }
    html .centerColumn{
    height: 1%;
    position: relative;
    }

    Any more suggestions?

    Rob,

    I have tried many, many different combinations to resolve the misalignment issues. I have applied Holly Hack to just about everything and combo. And took it back out again when it did not work.

    Do you have any other suggestions or ideas? I am at a loss and site looks bad.

    Thanks,
    Kim

    No, sorry. That's usually the magic bullet for alignment issues in IE.

    However you might try fixing the over 100 errors that the page is throwing in the w3.org html validator. Most are not going to be a problem -- ampersands not coded -- but some of them are serious, including some missing or mismatched end tags. That might very well cause a problem with page display.
