    you could view the code at this location: http://kenvil.1111mb.com/
    because the layout changes when i navigate to other links/page. (in the case of IE7 but it its Okay on Firefox)

    It would be far more productive if you described precisely what the problem was.

    Why? That's a pain in the ass and uses up unnecessary space in the forum database. It's far easier to diagnose problems from a live website, particularly as a problem might be related to the server itself.

    i've created a site using tables for my layout... i've set it to fix sizes. When i tested the site in two different browser, it returns different layout. Firefox, shows the table layout the same way that i've set in my HTML Editor (Dreamweaver) while in IE the table widths has noticeable changes, the right column expand where it shouldn't be. hope this would explain the problem.

    Don't do either of those things. CSS should be used to layout documents, and the majority should be fluid.

    Not here. The most significant difference between MSIE and Firefox (I've not bothered to check others) is that the former doesn't load the Flash animation (something I'm rather happy with). The next is that because you've used alpha transparency in your PNG, IE 6 displays an odd blueish background.

    Due to the fact that your host inserts adverts in the most horrible of ways, your documents will always be rendered in "Quirks" mode. This will trigger intentional rendering bugs in various browsers, reducing the likelihood of achieving a similar layout (though I currently see very little difference).

    INVALID!!!

    your not supposed to have any code above the doctype or outside the <html></html> tags.

    and your noscript has to be in the body...
    so get your host to insert their code properly, because having a validly written website is a good thing.

    Hey, i saw your site, its nice. I saw your html code also through view source. You are using many css and your code is combination of table html and css.

    You are writing the table inside of div class. Pls try writing as div inside the table structure. I will give perfect matches in both IE and firefox. Jus try.
