IE 6.0 check please
Can someone check my work site with IE6 and let me know what is going on with it? I have IE7 here and understand that there are problems with IE6 (surprise, surprise, huh???) It looks fine in FF, Opera and IE7…
Thanks,
BlueLena

It’s got something to do with the footer margins I think.

Bluelena,
For one thing I think you should add padding to your #content part in your CSS. This will solve the text problem.

Re: IE 6.0 check please
It’s caused by an interaction between the #footer and the .copyright divs.
Might I suggest that you change the #footer css to
text-align: center;
margin: 0 auto;
and remove the width and margin declarations from the .copyright css and use padding: 20px 0;
The main content can be fixed by reducing the offset of the left margin as well as eliminatnng it for the headers.
Just for my own curiousity – why so many negative margins?

NyteOwl et al,
Thanks so much. I think that took care of it. I didn’t want to download IE to fix it and didn’t want to wait to get home. Experience will teach me to do better and complete browser testing…how I long for the day…
I’m working on my personal site now and hopefully that will reflect a better understanding of these nuances, such as negative margins, of which there are so many because of inexperience. I plan to fix all of them.
Cheers,
J
