    Default Alignment problems in IE

    Hello,
    I am having alignment problems in IE. It looks fine in Firefox.

    Default Re: Alignment problems in IE

    Code:
    /*wrappers - page or section containers*/
    #mainWrapper {
    	background-color: #ffffff;
    	text-align: left;
    	width: 1000px;
    	vertical-align: top;
    	border: 15px double black;
    	}
    That's a place to start... maybe try 100% instead?

    I'd also recommend to reduce the size of the product images.

    Something more specific than "alignment problems" would help us to help you. Though there is a bug in your CSS that I would recommend fixing. The styling below looks like an attempt to force a border under all circumstances, but alas the syntax is wrong.
    .centerBoxWrapper {
    border: 1px solid black; !important
    height: 1%;
    margin: 1.1em 0;
    }
    The !important here appears to be intended to force a black border under all circumstances (though I doubt that it would actually have any effect), unfortunately it has been placed after the semi-colon and therefore outside of the statement which it seems to be trying to influence.

    However that makes it the beginning of the next statement "height: 1%" which is therefore corrupted. Browsers generally deal with corrupt statements by ignoring them. Unfortunately Internet Explorer needs this one to force it to calculate a height for your center column boxes and thus draw their borders correctly.

    thanks a lot guys. my problem (besides the !important) was that i had the height for the logowrapper at 75px and because i have a bigger picture there it was messing it up
