    I need someone to fix my sidebar in my theme in IE5-IE6

    This theme looks fine in modern browsers

    The thing I cannot fix is the sidebar drops in IE5-IE6 with IE’s way of handling Div or padding I’m not sure what the hell it is. I have tried many things to fix this.

    I have given up, but I still want to use this theme. Therefore I offer 20 USD via paypal to whoever can get this fixed for me!

    In the right hands I'm sure this would be a quick 5 minute fix.

    Took a 20 second look at your styles and this may be the fix

    To get rid of double margins, and hide anything that goes beyond the dimensions of the sidebar.

    Thanks if that the fix then I'll send you the $20 payment.

    But right now I can't check it as yourihost decided he was cool to use my trust to edit my settings to point to his site. Now my domain points to his, what an idoit.....

    DONT TRUST Yourihost......

    Ok. 5 minutes beats 20 seconds :)

    How dumb. The original coder used percentages inside of a fixed width layout. Anyway, on the top right if you see the sidebar top graphic being repeated, add this part in bold

    I used the link you gave, so if you modified yours a lot then it might not get fixed.. let me know. Oh yeah, also do the same for the sidebar bottom, just add the background-repeat:no-repeat;
