Thanks for this, very helpful!

This has worked for things like positioning my boxes so
they don't overlap in IE, and they still look right in Firefox.
I'm using the tiny hack where quotes are used around the 
alternative value in the stylesheet, as this seemed easiest
to understand and to do.

However, it hasn't fixed one problem; the purple navigation bar
with the images are you a... etc. and then the purple triangle
on the end. The triangle is the correct size, but the navbar is
a couple of pixels taller than it should be, which means that the
triangle doesn't line up neatly in IE. 

Can anyone suggest a fix? Or should I stop using a table there,
and position the navbar and triangle elements separately in CSS?

Thanks again!

 Hi there,

 I've created a page for a client and used CSS for layout. I'm a 
 beginner to that, but it worked neater than tables.

 Except one problem... it looks fine on Firefox but not on IE.

 How can I get IE to behave the same way? The main problem is with
 the Are you a... nav bar and the purple triangle on the end of 
 it, and to some extent with the spacing around that. IE gives that
 bit too much height :(

 Any help and advice welcome!

 Many thanks.

to get the same box model for ie6 that all other browsers have,
simply put a standards doctype on your pages.  this will then give ie6
and all future versions the w3c box model and means that you only have
to hack the dead (as in ie versions that are no longer supported,
such as ie5 and below) to get the box model to work everywhere.
