here's the quickest fix: on div#rhs h2, change margin-left: 201px; to margin:0 0 0 201px; It works on IE and Firefox/win, so it should work on Camino and probably Safari too. Alan Trick Tony Lim wrote: I'm having trouble with http://www.outdoorinsights.com.au appears ok on IE on a pc but the

Right now for the image in question you have: style=position: absolute; top:-5px; right:5px; In FF it appears as you would like it, but in IE it looks like it is a bit too close to the right edge, no? Try something like this: style=position: absolute; top:-5px; right:5px !important; right:10px;

Gah - we're well underway on a an XHTML 1.1 compliant site, and we've eventually found that we need to do an IE hack--a real shame since everything else was going so well. Can anyone see if there's a simple mistake we've done, or if it is indeed a bug with IE which necessitates a hack. The
