Style of Page in IE7 & 8

1 New Member
I am creating my first website and have found that my page doesn't look the same in IE7 & 8 as it does in FF. Specifically, the header names that lead to the various pages trail off. You can only see Home and Buy Now.

HELP Please ... I am hoping this is an easy fix!!

This is typical and expected. IE is not a modern web browser and does not behave like anything else. In addition, IE8 does not behave like IE7 which does not behave like IE6 and none of them behave like far more modern Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera, etc.

One immediate issue is you cannot place anything before the doctype. Move those conditional comments and place them in the <head> where they belong. Otherwise, IE goes into 'quirks' mode.
