Default theme and Internet Explorer problem

    I just launched a WordPress blog site (myfundraisingproject.com) and noticed that the header & footer are a little off when viewed in IE within the single post. It looks fine in Firefox.

    I’m using the default WordPress theme and am a newbie when it comes to html, css, php, etc.

    Is there an easy fix for this problem?

    Thanks,

    Scott…

    You’re 2 versions behind. Default theme “1 pixel shift” is fixed in WP 2.0.4.

    How do I know what version of WordPress am I on?

    Login as Admin. Look at the bottom of any Admin page.

    Or, view source of any blog page. In the <head> section, look for:
    <meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.0.2" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->

    (that one’s from your profile link)

    Ok. I upgraded to the latest version. It now says 2.0.4 — 0.20 seconds at the bottom of the Admin…Dashboard page.

    The single post is still off in IE. Did I do something wrong during the upgrade?

    I didn’t delete the wp files before the upgrade. I just copied over (replace existing – yes).

    Thanks,

    Make absolutely sure you got the newest wp-content/themes/default folder.

    … oh, and clear your browser cache

    I found the problem. I was displaying an ad in the single post that was too wide. Firefox seems to be able to adjust it whereas IE didn’t. I decreased the width and now it doesn’t mess up my Header & Footer in the single post.

    Thanks for your help.
