so I'm messing with my first table-less design and of course it looks fine in every browser but IE.
I'm used to having to fix CSS for IE, but right now most of my website isn't even showing up. I don't even know where to start. Any insight would be appreciated.
(can we abolish this f'ing browser already?)
the html:

also check out some box model hacks. Combining width, margin, padding, border, etc... is not good for olde browsers.
good place to start reading up on things...

Yeah, I mean i've had to make adjustments to box models before, usually it was just minor - stuff not aligning.
but this is pretty much a disaster in IE.

I don't have much time to look but play with your overflow property or get rid of it when not needed. I don't see why it uses absolute positioning for the layout either.

As I said I have no time but it looks like you have nothing in the content section. Get rid of absolutes and nest your sections properly. I think it would take me longer to figure out how that actually works in Firefox.
Also, try setting other link properties than just a:link.

I agree, it doesn't look like #under should be stretching to encapsulate the other page elements (which it's not in IE).
I think IE is actually rendering this correctlyNo idea why that actually works in FF.
is the Ajax portion up and running already, and if so, does it support IE Dom?

the ajax stuff is working fine, except for an error i get on IE/Mac.
Not sure where I went wrong. I'm trying to teach myself as I go, and I assumed I was doing it correctly since it looked fine in safari/FF.
thanks for looking at it...
