I officially hate IE!!!! I made this amazing layout in Mozilla of course and wanted to check the browser compatibility, and it looks great in Mozilla, Opera, and Safari. However, 39% of my website visitors use IE...I don't see why, I hate the damn thing.

Here is the layout (http://www.modernrevolutions.vivid-avenue.net/websitelayouts/hayden/index.php) (please view in Mozilla and then IE)

How do I fix that? Is it one of the codes that I have in my header? Please help!!! :/

(Btw, what do you think of it? I love it :D )

It looks the same in Chrome as it does in IE... Sorry to inform you but your layouts no good in Chrome. Big space on the left.

394 lines! Thats a fair chunk of code. It had my head spinning.

Was there a particular reason you decided not to use CSS?

Sorry I don't have much else for now.

My personal opinion though, even though Microsoft's products are bad, but according to stat, people still using IE the most, much more than other browsers. That's why I always make my site looks great in IE first before testing on others. But your site looks really good though.

vincentvu - NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEVER use IE as your main development browser! NEVER!!!!!! :mad: Who cares if people use IE most! Doesn't mean that it's okay to develop in it! IE and Development should NEVER be in the same sentence together unless the words "is terrible for" are in between IE and Development! Though I do agree with you that Microsoft is a horrid company as far as quality goes.

ModernRevolutions - Great design, can't help much for IE though... Maybe block IE users and redirect them to the Mozilla Site! :p

Couldn't have said it better myself. :)

Now that I read it over, sorry for the big rant vincentvu, I Just can't stand it when people who fall into the "IE's okay to use" trap. :)
