template issues in IE7, looks ok in Firefox

Hi.

Can anyone help me with this and shed some light....I am trying to build the cart to integrate to our site, however I've run into some issues.

I replaced the header and footer with our template. However, it does not load properly at all with internet explorer.....however, when loading it onto firefox it loads correctly. what could I be doing wrong to make it screw up in IE but show fine in FF.... the site is http://grandmax.com/shop/

any help is much appreciated

Add this to your stylesheet:

#mainWrapper {
width:800px;
margin:0 auto;
}

Re: template issues in IE7, looks ok in Firefox

but if i do that then it will restrict the width to 800px...i currently have it in 3 columns, where the table itself is 100% but only the middle column is defined 800px, this way the left and right sides adjust when resized....please see the main http://grandmax.com to see what i'm trying to accomplish.

thanks

You can't just 'stretch' an orignally 800px fixed-width layout to make it fluid (variable) width. Its a bit of work to do a 3column layout.

Anyway, it looks sorted now? Looks the same in IE and FF.
