If you search for "infobox" in the forums on mwusers.com, you will find 
lots of discussion on this topic.  The key solution steps are:

1 - Install the ParserFunctions extension
2 - Enable Tidy
3 - Always do a "deep copy" of an Infobox (or any template for that matter.
4 - Ensure that you have copied the relevant CSS from Mediawiki:Common.css

Deep copy means you not only need the template itself but the templates 
that it includes.  This is a straightforward task - see

Remember that Mediawiki:Common.css is a page, not a file - i.e. 
http://example.com/wiki/Mediawiki:Common.css.
