    Firefox & IE Different Presentation

    http://squidg.x10hosting.com/delinkwentz/index.html

    I've validated this page and fixed all the errors but Firefox and IE still displays it very differently.
    The way firefox displays the site is good and thats how i went it to be viewed on IE.

    As you can see in IE the links are organized differently and there is a blue thick line for some odd reason. Also the Sponsors links are displayed differently too.

    How can i fix this?

    Which version of IE are you testing for?

    If its IE6, you're going to have fun!

    I too have major problems with it.

    I'm testing in IE7, FF and Chrome.

    The only difference between them that I can see are to do with the sponsor links.

    The blue line around the image can be simply removed by specifying border="0" (This also appears in FF for my although not in Chrome)

    To make sure your images line up like they do in FF, you should specify a img{} css tag with float: left;

    _____

    Scrap that, you may find that specifying the border="0" will remove the 1px border and allow all the images to fit within your <div> width.

    border="0" just goes in the html <img> tag, along with source etc.

    You may not need to alter your css as this may solve the problem.

    If its still a problem, you'll need to specify a custom .imgcust{} css tag, specifying border: none;

    Glad you got somewhere.

    IE is a bit strange in that when you put an anchor on images, it automatically puts a blue border around it!

    This, unforuntately, is not the only bug with IE6.

    A word of advice for the future as you're developing - avoid .png files with transparency!!
