Cross browser issues

23 New Member

I'm afraid of the answer I am going to get.

I am working on my website on a Mac, and I don't know anything about making things work cross browser. Please dumb it down for me.

One of the problem pages

So, I can't get the page to render correctly in IE. It looks a little bad on the mac version (the little yellow dot in the top left corner is the "image"), but on the pc version it is horrible. On IE on the pc the image appears, but the right column isn't holding up.

Please help.

(Things were... slightly skew, but it got worse with the java script for the roll over image, but the java script shouldn't effect the right column.)

Validate and fix your html errors , then validate and fix your css errors.

Why are you using a loose doctype? All new pages should always use strict.

I forgot to add that you are using Xhtml ending tags but a html doctype. Remove the slashes />. That's creating some of your problems.
