Re: [WSG] Browser [Firefox & IE] & Navbar issues
Jenny- Welcome to the group! And welcome to the game of validation. . . Before attempting to fix your layout problems, ensure that both your XHTML and CSS validate by testing them here: (X)HTML: http://validator.w3.org/ CSS: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ After having done that, see if anything changes (you have enough errors that it likely will make a difference). And then a word of advice that may seem counterintuitive at first: Code your pages FIRST to your most compliant browser on hand (Firefox), and then "fix" as necessary for IE and others. Reason is, you want to first be sure that you're using the rules correctly, so that you are effectively coding for forward-compatibility. Then apply hacks and patches as necessary to get older browsers to place nice, until one day they're obsolete and you simply can remove the hacks altogether. . .

[WSG] Browser [Firefox & IE] & Navbar issues
Hello All, I'm new to the group. I'm having some coding issues on a site I'm creating. I'm using horizontal menus within a 2 column template. Here is the direct link to the page: http://www.aekituesday.com/interviews/index.html How can I get this to display correctly in both IE & Firefox? Also, I'm experiencing sidebar issues. In IE it looks great. The sidebar is in perfect place but in Firefox it's not. Any ideas?
