[css-d] IE Problem (naturally!)
Greetings! I finally finished this website and everything works perfectly on all browsers (Win & Mac) except for IE 6 and 7 on Windows. I have a graphic decoration at the bottom of each of the following two pages and have used CSS margin-left to position them, but IE doesn't seem to recognize the margin and places the graphic on the left side of the screen. I tried fiddling with the padding as well, but then everything got very messed up. Here are the pages with problems: http://www.boletta.com/aau/book.html http://www.boletta.com/aau/type.html Here is the external stylesheet: http://www.boletta.com/aau/portfolio.css I can't figure out what causes this to happen in IE or if I am doing something wrong in CSS (or XHTML). All of the HTML is valid. I also checked all the embedded and external stylesheets at WC3 and the CSS is all valid. I am stumped. Any help would be appreciated.
