CSS IE headaches

Firefox good IE bad

[juice454]

IE is buggin up my archive box and justifying it halfway down the page, whereas in FIREFOX it is positioned as it should be. <snip>

I checked out some of the other posts, and thought maybe it might be my doc-type causing the problem too, but changing it did not seem to help. Any thoughts!?

Code (pre-compilation):

<div id="maincontent">
<div class="overflow">
<div class="padside"><?php print_front_entries ();?></div>

<table cellspacing="25" align="center" >
<tr>
<td class="archive" colspan="2">archive<?php print_front_archive ();?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="archive" colspan="2"><a href="javascript:noSpam('justin','example.com')" onfocus="this.blur();">Email</a></td>
</tr>
</table>

</div> <!-- end overflow -->
</div> <!-- end maincontent -->

Any help would be appreciated...

juice454, could you post the css file? That would help a lot.

hey guys,

thanks for the heads up. i do not believe the problem lies in my css because i am really only using the table and my html code for positioning of the archive box in question. but who knows. the css is here <snip> thanks,
juice

I have tried your code and found that if you put the archive box table right below the <div> for the lens box, everything seems to look fine in a few different browsers. You might want to try that.

Hey coho,

What div are you talking about when you say "lens" box?
The uncompiled PHP/HTML code is in my first post for reference. Thanks for taking the time to look at this.

I looked at the code for the actual page before the URL was removed. I put the archive table directly below the div that included the code for the camera lens that was on the page. If you sticky me the URL I can give you the exact placement.

hrmm...not completely sure what you mean by sticky (sorry about the n00b-ness)

- here is the direct link to the page: <snip>
- here is a link to the code i am working with in a text file [<snip>
