Looks good in Firefox, but terrible in IE

2 New Member
I created this using notepad and was checking it in Firefox, but when i finished and checked it in IE it looks like crap. I even opened up Dreamweaver and it shows it looking great. I can't find what is causing it. I have double, triple checked to make sure that all my ", <, >, tr, td, etc. are opened and closed properly. Please can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Here is my code:

could I have a Link to the website that this is on if it is on a website?

PS: Why not take that <style> part and put it in a CSS file and have the page a lot shorter?

Update: Hope you dont mind uploaded it to my site to test it out and it looks nice, looks the same in IE as FF, infact it looks worse in FF then IE. What version of IE are you using?

The reason why I dont have a CSS file is because this is supposed to be able to be used as a HTML email. That is good to hear that it was looking fine in IE. The IE version I am using is IE7, and my firefox is version 2

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
