IE display Need help urgent

My site is to go in for production today.. and i have a problem with IE.
The left sideboxes move out of the main wrapper when viewed in IE whereas it displays perfect for FF. Plz help

Please find the screenshots attached below both for IE and FF

Re: IE display Need help urgent

Xaria,
Went to your site and looked at it in 4 browsers. As you stated, the only one to fail is IE7.

Next, I thought perhaps it was a style sheet issue, so I downloaded your stylesheet to my test web site, and there were no failures. By the way it appeared, I thought you had a stylesheet failure.

I took a close look at your source html - and noted you are using sidebox banners... I do not, so I probably did not perform a valid test.

In summary, I think perhaps you have some conflict between your banners (and I did not see any banners - just the code for their use) and the sideboxes. You could comment out your banner boxes and test without them - but, I do not want you to mess up your site. I really like the nice clean look your site has. It really looks great.

My apologies for intruding -

Re: IE display Need help urgent

This may be your solution:
You have a table with a width of 750 and centered. This is your category top table with your buttons inside... and that is ok... HOWEVER, you follow it with a table that is 100% and it is your content main wrapper. I believe if you make the second table 750 and centered it will solve the current issue.

respectfully,
jund

FIRST TABLE
<table width="750" height="28" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

<tr align="center"> <td ><a class="category-top" href="<A

NEXT TABLE
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" id="contentMainWrapper">

<tr>

Change it to:
table width="750" border="0" align="center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"

Re: IE display Need help urgent

Xaria,

Thank you for the courage to come back on the forum and let the entire 'world' know that you had overlooked the 'center' part of the coding... you demonstrated great self respect.

You have a really clean looking site. And, I like your choice of colors. In the 'old days' we always had to use 'safe' colors... but, it IS a brave new world.

sincerely,
jund
