 * I’m a beginner in designing themes. I started on a design for my WordPress blog
   here [http://www.69tribe.com](http://69tribe.com)
 * It works perfectly fine with Firefox and Opera but on IE my main content post
   got break from the middle to the bottom of my leftsidebar.
 * Any hacks for me to put in my css?
 * My current css for those part are as follow:
 * #content {
 *  float:left;
    width: 420px; text-align:left; margin-left:5px; margin-right:5px;
 *  font:11px/16px ‘Lucida Grande’, Verdana, Sans-Serif;
    font-size:0.9em; color:#
   29303B; line-height:1.3em;
 * }
 * #leftbar {
    float:left; margin-left:5px; margin-right:5px;
 * }
 * Hope someone can help me with this IE prob. Thank you.

 * It’ll be in your margins. Try padding instead, that might work. IE just hates
   CSS.

 * Nope it still doesn’t work. I’ve just changed
    margin-left:5px; margin-right:
   5px;
 * in both the css code above into
    padding-left: 5px;
 * but the problem still persists
