Customizing WP – IE Border Problems

    I’ve managed to get my header image to look decent in IE and Firefox, but the dashed border I’m trying to put in between the header area and the narrowcolumn/sidebar areas extends outside of the page in IE. This, I’m afraid, is something incredibly simple that I’m overlooking, after fiddling with it for about a half hour, I’ve decided to turn to people who have done this before. 🙂

    Well, your site’s XHTML validates, but the only errors in your CSS are associated with your header. You have multiple styles for your header that have to be checked as they may be in conflict with each other. Some are in the header.php and others are in your style.css. Cracking a lot of the same eggs together might be part of your trouble.

    With these errors, it might fix the width issue, since you have it set in several places.

    As stupid as this might sound, expecially coming from someone who thinks he has a touch of web coding experiance, is it bad for WordPress to strip out the default style pieces? I mean, is there one place I should leave the header information and take from the other?

    Good news, the border problem is fixed, after stripping out the CSS info from the header file. The problem with IE now is the mysterious gap inbetween the right edge of the page section and the header image. So far I can’t make both parties happy, Firefox loves me, IE doesn’t.

    Got it. I have to have my CSS set the headerimg to a size twenty one pixels larger than the page section, which I’d think would result in a section of the image protruding from the side in both IE and Firefox, but both seem to be fine with it. Fickle creatures.
