Hi,

I am a new member to WSG and am hoping�someone can help me with a problem I'm having. I'm only new to web design and CSS, and am learning as I go along.
�
I'm trying to create a site but it is displaying differently in Firefox and IE and I'm not sure why.
�
It is a two column template, with the navigation in the left column. There is an image which is supposed to span the entire width of the right column.
�
In Firefox, the left nav displays correctly, but in IE, the nav is moved further to the right than it is supposed to be, so I've had to make the image narrower than it should be to fit into the right column. This means that in Firefox, the image doesn't quite reach all the way to the right edge.

The URL is http://learnline.cdu.edu.au/pathways if you need to have a look.

I've gone through everything I can think of and still can't fix it.

Any suggestions (in layman's terms) would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Kym Parry
Welcome, Kym. You're almost certainly falling foul of IE's incorrect interpretation of the CSS Box Model. Have a look at Big John's site [1] for a rundown on this and other teeth-gnashing inconsistencies you're likely to encounter trying to get your site(s) to render properly in IE.
