Disappearing tables in IE7!?

In FF its fine but not IE : [

[SpeedLimit]

Am building up a website by using Templates that is based on tables, I can view it fine on FF but in IE7 it shows only the content without any arrange or order! So what I thought that the tables disappeared?! :/

using Dreamweaver 8, am not good at coding. So am not sure what part of the code to share, since that I saw all the problems need to show the code so that it could be fixed.

Your help is appreciate it, thanks.

Sounds like an html error of some kind or other. First place to start debugging ANY cross=browser problem is ensuring you have valid mark-up.

W3C Validator - HTML [validator.w3.org]
W3C Validator - CSS [jigsaw.w3.org]

Welcome to WW, SpeedLimit.

Like tedster suggested, run the pages through a validator to look for problems. If you haven't done much hand-coding yet, the output will be very confusing at first. But you're going to have to become somewhat familiar with html code eventually anyway, so this is a good time to start. There's a lot of information online about basic html and CSS, and though it will suck back many hours figuring it all out, you'll have a much better grip on things by the end. And it will definitely take care of the IE/FF problem (it's in your code somewhere, for sure).

Am glad that someone is knocking on my door :)

Here is the result of the two tests:

W3C Validator - HTML

Failed validation, 38 Errors

W3C Validator - CSS

Congratulations! No Error Found.

For the HTML errors here is a summary of the errors:

1 - there is no attribute"height" or "background" or "src", "quality", "type", "width"...

2 - element "embed" undefined.

This one appeared 12 times!

3 - required attribute "alt" not specified

Appeared 5 times

4 - XML Parsing Error
6 errors

5 - document type does not allow element "noscript" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag.

Am not sure how to fix them, since most of them point to a '>' or a'"'!

Hope that this helped in showing my problem, and some one will be able to guide me on what to do!

Thanks again

I want to thank both of you "tedster" "stefan" for the help. Since my problem is some where in the code and I can't figure it out, I decided to redesign the page. It will be easier to me than fixing the code.

Thanks again :)
