Hi all, At http://www.SydneyJaneBaily.com, which is my home/splash page, the nav menu is supposed to be over the purple book mark and looks just fine in Firefox. But in IE (only checked 8 and 9), the nav shows on the upper left as if no positioning at all and looks like a bulleted list. Ugly!
IE 8 and below don't recognize the HTML5 <nav> element. You need some JavaScript goodness for that - <http://modernizr.com/> <https://github.com/aFarkas/html5shiv> <http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/how-to-make-all-browsers-render-html5-mark-up-correctly-even-ie6/> But at the moment, all versions of IE behave like the ancient version 5.5. As you have already been told, you need a DOCTYPE. You also really should use the <html> <head> and <body> elements to hold relevant bits of your code.
