Hi all Ive been going nuts with a problem I'm having. I have a 3 column template that I use and it looks great in Firefox and Safari. IE expands the right column and moves everything down to the bottom depending on the content of the middle section

Can anyone please let me know if they can help? I can send them a link to the file that is in question?

Or what type of info can I provide to assist me with this?

Thanks

Hi brnm98105,

The two threads pinned to the top of the forum [webmasterworld.com] explain what information to provide and how to prepare it for posting.

Hopefully this is not too much code.

The problem is everything works great in Firefox and Safari. I just opened up today in IE the left column with the table inserted in a cell floats way too low
