Layout different in IE than FF, Safari, & Netscape

HI,
I am setting up a new showcase with 138a with the ocean_front temp.
I am configuring the page and in doing so I have found that IE is laying itself out different than Firefox and the other main browsers.
http://www.woodstockwineandcheese.com/zen-cart/
I normally use Firefox so I did not catch this right away.
If you compare the link above in IE and any of the other three you will see the problem. What do I need to edit so IE will place the bar under the header banner like the rest instead of on it?
Also is there a way to remove the tabs? Since it a showcase I would like to remove the view cart tab. :unsure:

I dont see any quick fix for your CSS... You have some odd floating divs in there and other style definitions which are not needed. It appears to need a number of fixes to get everything flowing properly which would help making 'fixes' for IE

I recomend Firefox 3 with the web developer extension.

Re: Layout different in IE than FF, Safari, & Netscape

Hi Steve,
I do use FF 3.0.1 with the developers tools great browser that is why I didn't catch the NAV bar miss located in IE right away.
When working on page creations I use Adobe Fireworks CS3 that creates me CSS sheets for me. Have to get more use to Mozillas tools.
But I thought the CSS page was part of the zen-cart.
The only thing I did was change the jpg to my own banner.
Is this to big and needs to be resized? Never had this problem before in other carts.
Why is it in the other browsers it works fine?
Is this template poorly designed? if so I'll select a different one.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks
