    Default Unequal space between sideboxes

    I'm developing a new site at http://www.diva############s.co.uk/shop/ and have a strange problem where the sideboxes on the right have larger gaps between them than the sideboxes on the left when viewed in Internet Explorer, but everything looks fine in Firefox.

    I've scoured the stylesheet and other files for clues and have tried allsorts but have finally run out of ideas.

    Please can anyone suggest a remedy?

    I don't know what's causing the problem but could I cure it by having a seperate CSS entry for IE and Firefox?

    Which boxes are you using on the right?

    I've swapped the boxes around a bit, but currently I have on the right 'Important Links - Sponsors - Search - Bestsellers - Specials - Currencies'

    One big thing I notice, is that your *RIGHT* column has the wrong css selectors in its <td>:


    <td id="navColumnOne" class="columnLeft" style="width: 150px;">
    <div id="navColumnTwoWrapper" style="width: 150px;">

    It should be

    <td id="navColumnTwo" class="columnRight" style="width: 150px;">

    Open up includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_main_page.php and fix the line with the issue, it should look like this:

    Code:
    <td id="navColumnTwo" class="columnRight" style="width: <?php echo COLUMN_WIDTH_RIGHT; ?>">
    This is not a default zen issue, so let me know if the above code helps or not, and if not, I'd be happy to help figure out what was changed that is causing it.
