Problems with theme in Internet Explorer (4 posts)

    Ok, I am having problems with my theme.

    In Firefox and Safari, everything is perfect for the theme. Everything looks great and works well.

    However, in Internet Explorer, the theme goes crazy. The only problem that is bugging me to death is the border around the content and the sidebar. For the page.php, for such pages as the Contact Us page, everything is fine. But, for the index.php for posts and categories, it seems the sidebar is within the content div, and the border for the content surrounds both the sidebar and the posts/content.

    I have validated my CSS with no errors, but really need help in resolving this issue.

    This is the website with errors.

    Page in question - home page or Obituaries.

    Page that appear correctly - Contact Us

    The site has some validation errors, correct these, an you're probably fine.

    I really don't see much of an error with the design, though I'm using Chrome instead of Firefox. You could try creating another css file that specifically handles the design in IE.

    No, OP should fix the validation errors. Firefox, and possibly Chrome, is much more forgiving on xhtml coding errors, but will force other browsers, like IE, into quirks mode.

    I think the main problem is an unclosed hr tag.

    So instead of

    <hr>

    OP should write

    <hr />
