    Unhappy looks horrible on IE but good on firefox3, help.

    Heres my page.
    http://www.unvoluntarylove.vivid-avenue.net/

    My blogs and stuff on my pages are in the right places and it looks good on firefox.
    But when I open my page on Internet Explorer the stuff like my blogs and everything are near the bottom of the page, if im not explaining this well just look at my page on firefox then in IE.

    Could you tell me how to make it look normal on IE and firefox at the same time?

    Try getting your page to validate and see how it looks in IE after that.

    It seems that the CSS that you use for your blog is messy. I recommend you to rework it if that is possible for you. The one defect I've noticed here is the usage of positioning. You have employed the positioning extensively mainly absolute positioing.

    If you just want to make the IE look good then try to add the following two CSS rules in DIV#contentdiv:

    Code:
            *top: 90px;
    	*left: 188px;
    Hope this helps

    It is an honest truth that IE is not the best browers out there. I design my websites to look right in Firefox then preview it in IE and make small changes to make it look good in both.

    Even if IE is horrible as a web developer one has to develop their sites compatible with most popular browsers. Unfortunately IE is one among them.
