    Default Text in FIREFOX aligned to the left, Text in IE aligned to the right

    Hello everyone,

    I need some help fixing and finding out whats wrong with my site. I believe it is part of the CSS style sheet.

    My site looks exactly the way i want it to, but when i test in IE all the text in the sidebox content and the breadcrumb is centered.

    I tried adding width:100% or even setting a set width px for all the boxes. (sideboxContent, centerContent)

    I'm stuck on how to fix this. Any help would be appreciated!

    ok i kinda figured it out, i went into the style sheet and added position:absolute to the breadcrumbs and it worked for IE but i cant figureout where to put this for the sidebox links without messing up the left column.

    I think you're looking in the wrong place. You have a <center> tag in your header that is opened but never closed. Sooner or later the browsers need to close it, but they're coming to this conclusion at different times.

    Rather than closing the tag, I'd recommend removing it and using CSS to center your text, that way the styling will apply only to what you tell it to apply to and your design won't unexpectedly change if browsers stop recognising the <center> tag (which is no officially deprecated).

    This is an example where validating the site is helpful. You have a few validation errors and this would have been picked up as the first of them.
