IE 7 - My site looks crazy!

If you look at my site in IE 7. My site looks crazy! But in Firefox, and anything 'below' IE 7 it looks great.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Respectfully,
Len

Re: IE 7 - My site looks crazy!

This might give you a hint: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.perfumes.com%2Feng%2Findex_eng.htm

Your page has 99 errors.

On a different note, you have a fantastic domain name, but the design of your site is totally at odds with the product that you are selling. Maybe the fact that the page is messed up is a blessing in disguise: time to get back to the drawing board.

Re: IE 7 - My site looks crazy!

The reason that you have a problem is that IE7 reads the css in different way to Firefox. You need to look at the source code and determine which css needs adjusting, probably 'centerBoxWrapper' or 'What'sNew' you will need to adjust height rule.

Hi Cesxav
Same problem you need to sort out the css rules so that IE 7 can use them correctly. The site looks ok in Firefox.

Re: IE 7 - My site looks crazy!

Your style sheets are here
"includes/templates/delta-833/css/stylesheet.css" />
"includes/templates/delta-833/css/stylesheet_css_buttons.css" />
"includes/templates/delta-833/css/print_stylesheet.css" />
It might also need some adjustment to the html for example if you have this <br/> you might need to make it <br clear="all" /> for IE7 to work.
I thi9nk the problem is that IE7 is not reading the height properly and the above html code can sometimes fix the problem.
Good luck

Re: IE 7 - My site looks crazy!

Actually had another look into html code and I think this part <br style="line-height:15px"/> is not understood by IE7
