Strange theme problem

    I am trying to implement our company web design in WP as a separate theme, so I took our home page for example, split the HTML code to header, footer, sidebar and body content and placed each in Header.php, Footer.php, Sidebar.php and Index.php under the new theme folder

    Taking in consideration that when moving the HTML code I am sure I didn’t miss anything (revised HTML code many times), I am facing the following ‘strange’ problems

    When testing the theme under FireFox everything is simply perfect, but when testing under Internet Explorer 7, the design look so strange…tables height expanded in some areas, top flash banner in header is not shown!

    Ironically when I test the site home page (before implementing it in WordPress) under FireFox and Internet Explorer 7….everything seems just fine!!!

    I’ve revised the HTML code many times and I am sure that it is exactly the same

    So can someone please help me and tell me how I can trace the problem?
    Did anyone face such problem before? Is there any special considerations in the HTML code I should consider to have our theme compatible with all browsers?

    Thanks in advance for your time

    try grabbing the content of the wordpress page and running through an html validator. If any little thing did get left off — which makes ie all hissy — the validator will tell you.
