Does this look ok in IE?

Have a client saying his site looks all misaligned in IE 7/8/9. However I see it fine on all planes (tried IE 7/9, Firefox 4/5, Chrome 13). Had a few other people check it out, they all report it looks fine in all their browsers. So we're not entirely sure why the client is seeing it incorrectly.

The client thought maybe it had something to do with his large screen resolution (1440 x 900) but I've tried many different resolutions and it continues to look fine. I dont think that would lead to the way that he's seeing it wrong anyway.

Was hoping a few people here could say if it looks ok or not in IE, so we can get a bigger picture of how often/which browsers it's not displaying correctly.

Here is a screenshot the client took of how he is seeing it:

Definitely doesnt look resolution-related.

Anyway, can I try to get some yay or nays here if looks good to you in the common browsers and which versions? Thanks much in advance!

Hi Yiphic,

Had similiar issues with a site I was working on. There appears to be a bug in IE where the site looks fine on you local machine, however is out of alignment on other machines. These are the steps I tried and they worked.

First of all run your code through the W3C Validator http://validator.w3.org/

Once I did this and corrected the few minor mistakes it all came good. Second thing to try is remove all the default padding by using the below code at the top of your CSS

* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}

** And just for curiosity I ran your source through the validator and it has 71 errors. Some seem to be tags not closed ect. Thats probably the issue.

Hope this helps.

Chad
