Couple of things: There is no HTML Doctype of 4.0 final, there is transitional, strict and frameset.
Your HTML doesn't validate in any of those doctypes, which could be causing the problems. The only DocTypes which trigger standards mode across browsers are HTML 4.01 strict, xHTML 1.0 Transitional and xHTML 1.0 Strict. Try one of those and make sure your HTML validates first. Once you have properly validated HTML, finding problems in CSS and HTML becomes much easier. Think of validation as code debugging.

I have two files that I have scaled down to the bare minimum to determine that in IE 6, that the following line has an issue with CENTERING text within a TD element. DOCTYPEs are the same so that rules out the possibility of it being that type of issue. At first I thought it should have been TRANSITIONAL but the problem is different even if the doctype is Final. <!-- End App Prefix --> View the following two files: This is the problem one without the comment line. By adding the doctype of transitional it left justifies the text as needed. http://www.demo-apps.com/test/test1.html This is the proper layout desired but has the comment line. By adding the doctype of transitional it left justifies the text as needed. By removing the comment line, the text is left justified. http://www.demo-apps.com/test/test2.html You can view the source and see that is the ONLY difference between the files. My question is this, why would that comment line make that much of an impact on HTML rendering?? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:247858 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
