I've corrected all of the aforementioned errors and the site is now XHTML
valid. However, the rendering issue (page loads strangely in IE8) described
in the original post still persists. Any ideas?

The updated template can be found at http://cssd.sigil93.net/

Thanks so much for your time!

Perhaps, but most of those are things like missing alt tags that generally
shouldn't cause this sort of problem.

[css-d] weird rendering issue in a few versions of IE

[Sacha Moufarrege]

Hi All,

I've inherited a project that involves modifying a pre-existing template to
specifications. A bowdlerized form of the current site can be found here:

http://cssd.sigil93.net/

As you can see, it's in need of work and the original template wasn't
exactly coded according to best practices.

One major issue I need to fix involves how the site renders in IE. I'm
currently using IE8 as that's the main browser of the site's target
audience. In IE8 (and other versions, apparently), when I click on
different pages the site seems to render by rolling across the screen.
Other versions render weirdly as well, but not quite the same. Chrome and
Firefox seem to render pages properly.

Does anyone know what might be causing this odd rendering issue and whether
there's a quick and easy solution to fix it?

Thanks so much for your time!

Sacha

I think removing the footer is exactly what I'll do then, thanks.

[css-d] IE6 footer and top nav positioning issues

[Sacha Moufarrege]

Hi,

I'm finishing up a template for a website and am at the stage where I'm
testing across various browsers. At the moment I'm trying to get the footer
to work properly in IE6. The page is here:

http://achad.net/pyramid/template.php

There are two issues; first, I'd like for the footer to only span the middle
area, as it does in Firefox. It seems like this creates issues with the left
and right columns coming down properly, however. Also, when IE6 is resized
in certain ways, the footer seems to come up and overlap the content. Any
advice would be appreciated.

Also, as this is one of my first fully CSS-based sites from scratch
(normally I do back-end work), I'm open to any advice regarding other things
that you may notice. One thing I'm curious about in particular is whether or
not I'm following best practices on the top navigation. The site is set up
so that the middle column expands (ie. to properly accommodate extremely
high resolutions), and when the browser is resized in certain ways, it
causes the links to move. Should I have them in a fixed position somehow?

Thanks for your time!
