Sorry, got waylaid on a few other pressing problems. This answer makes complete sense and I feel like a dummy for missing it altogether! Thanks to everyone on the list for your help.

Hi Wayne,

Looks like it's the set width that you're using. If you're already using
margins on the H2, why not dispense with the width and add the right margin,
like so:


#main #homer h2 {
        font-size: 117%;
        font-weight: normal;
        letter-spacing: 0.06em;
        line-height: 1.75em;
        color: #FFF;
        margin: 25px 210px 15px 10px;
        text-align: left;
}

This works for me in IE (and the others). That help?

The 380px worked for the top <h1> but now IE is centering the <h2> text
underneath, even though the CSS says align left. Getting there, but why is
IE doing this?

For some dumb reason, IE wants to
drop my text way down on the background image instead putting it at
the  top as the other browsers do.

Your width is a little wide -

#main #homer {

        display: block;
        margin: 0;
        padding: 0;
        width: 390px;
        z-index: 20;
        }

Make is a tad less and it'll be fine.

Cheers,

Mike
