   Hi. My site is caught-redhanded.com and I am having issues at the moment with the header. Although it shows perfectly in Safari and FF, in IE (and on my iPhone, incidentally), it's as if the header does not exist.

   I am hoping somebody wouldn't mind taking a quick look at the code and seeing if they can't work it out. I'm pretty new to it, so I'm not entirely sure where I've gone wrong!

   Many thanks in advance

   Hi

   Do a View Source on your home page and see that there are 4 or 5 lines of HTML code before the DOCTYPE declaration. Internet Explorer doesn't allow that at all. Get rid of them and you should be OK

   Okay, so I thought removing that data above DOCTYPE had solved the problem, however it doesn't look like it has..damn! Is anybody able to help?

   Hi

   If you look at your view source again, you will see that your header code is all commented out. FF is displaying it anyway, IE is not

   The reason I can see is this line
   <div id="header"> <!-- class="column span-14" --!>

   If you look closely, your closing comment tag is invalid should be
   - - > (without the spaces) Try that
