new site: ff good, ie bad

hey there folks.

i’ve been working on a site for work. i know it’s not beautiful (trying to do it quick and dirty in between normal job duties), but I’m running into some layout woes.

the site:

www.rcfymca.org

it looks as intended in firefox, but all out of whack in ie.

anyone care to take a peek at the css for me?

additionally, I am aware that not all of the sections are functional yet…just trying to get these nagging css issues taken care of before I move on.

thanks!!!!!!!!!!

without looking very carefully at it, it would seem you’re suffering from “ie’s double margin bug:” http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/doubled-margin.html. just add display:inline to your floated columns.

There’s an online tool on positioniseverything.net for cross browser css layouts.

http://www.positioniseverything.net/articles/pie-maker/pagemaker_2_9_home.html

Very sophisticated stuff. The resullts are more than sufficient for standard layouts.

It takes a quite a few clicks on the submit button to get used to the interface, but it is worth it.

If you want to understand whats going on inside the stle definition, make sure that the “Enable Verbose CSS Comments?” field is checked. You’ll get lots of comments inside the css explaining how it is done and how you can customize the layout.
