    Yikes... Run your code through a validator, that might clear some things up. In ie6, the page looks much different, the buttons at the top aren't the same as in Fx. Also, you might consider re-coding the page without the use of all the tables and the hundred div's. That page should have much less lines of code in it. The beauty of css is that you shouldn't need multiple tables to accomplish layout. Perhaps going to some free online css tutorials might help the coding process:

    Here are a few well-written tutorials that have helped me in the past:

    Hope these help.
