    hi there, i have a site that will lining up properly when i remove the <?php wp_head(); ?> tag from the header file. but i need to keep it intact so that i can get plugins to work properly. here is the page that i’m working on, and i would really be grateful for any feedback about how i could get the background image to line up at the top: http://www.leighbardugo.com/glamour/

    i’ll paste the code from my style.css code below. it’s quite hacked up at this point, but any advice is appreciated! (oddly enough it’s showing up okay in firefox.)

    thanks, denise

    I just looked at your site (which looks really cool, by the way) in Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari on my iMac. I don’t see what you are talking about.

    If you are having the problem in IE, and only in IE, then I would make this suggestion:

    Copy your style.css and name it style-ie.css

    Then, in your header.php file, you should copy and paste this code:

    <!--[if lt IE 9]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/style-ie.css" />
<![endif]-->

    Then, edit this stylesheet to make it look good in IE.

    oh, my gosh… i think that it fixed itself! sometimes turning off the computer and doing something else is the best thing to do! wow. i’ll keep this bit of code should i run into the problem again. thanks so much for your feedback, and your compliments 🙂

    This may have been related to the admin bar. If you were logged in and didn’t have <?php wp_footer(); ?> somewhere before your closing body tag, then the script for the admin bar wouldn’t load, yet the css for it that loads through <?php wp_head(); ?> would cause a 28px margin at the top to be added on all pages.

    Now that Troy mentions it, I think that is actually most likely your problem. I know I have disabled the admin bar from showing up when viewing some of my sites, because it does mess with the positioning of some elements.
