    Your table is too wide for the space at 1024x768. Something in your center column is forcing the center to be wider than the rest of the template can handle - not just the table, as it happens in all pages.
    The display is broken in Firefox as well, just not as badly as in IE6.
    I would ask Template Monster why the center takes too much space. How much have you modified their template layout?

    It looks like you have a lot of added mods on top of the TM template.
    Validating your HTML shows 224 errors on this page, many of them serious. Your display cannot be fixed until the code is fixed.

    Honestly i have modded their code heavily that my be part of the problem i moved the additional product images to the top, i but a border around the center column i changed the order of the previous and next buttons...i really have no idea how to fix all those errors

    I do not actually see any display problems though as far as just looking at the pages in ie and firefox you actually have to look at the code....


    i appreciate the help though

    From what im seeing most of the errors that are occurring have nothing to do with anything i have modified it is stuff that is built into the template i really cannot fix any of it without really looking into a alot because i did not create the template

    I did notice a couple of "incorrect nesting" type errors - like <form> and <div> tags overlapping - that must be from your modding. There were a number of table attributes that did not have the quotes around the values - like cellpadding=0 instead of cellpadding="0", and some align="undefined" (value not allowed).

    Also, you might not see a display problem in a wide monitor, but at 1024x768 there is definitely a problem with the center pushing the sidebar out beyond the template edge.

    Even if you go to a big site like sonic electronix above which has a great website it says there are 163 major errors and their site runs smoothly...
