The problem here is that you're using RootLayoutPanel explicitly, which requires the use of a standards-mode doctype.
* This widget will <em>only</em> work in standards mode, which requires that * the HTML page in which it is run have an explicit <!DOCTYPE> * declaration. The good news is that these days you can just throw a <!DOCTYPE html> declaration at the top of the page to get there -- no need to dig through the 37 different versions of [x]html doctypes. IE is particularly strange in quirks mode, which is why you're seeing such a large difference. Hope that helps, joel.
