Hi everyone. I am going nuts trying to figure this out. Everything displays correctly in FF. Of course. Now in IE, if you go to this page http://thecramerreport.com/ and see the search box on the right, that is the correct position for it. But if you go to other pages, such as this http://thecramerreport.com/April 10_14/Tcd.html There is a ton of space in between and I cannot get it to work...grrr... Does anyone have a clue? I dont.
Eeep! Nested tables ... I'd suggest ditching tables, or at least reducing the amount of tables and using div and CSS more. Definitely your problem will be related to the table layout. I am looking now and due to the table bloat. Usage of CSS and div would make a much easier to manage layout. Really, tables are for presenting data rather than handling a layout. Check out the html source for css zen garden. See how little code there is but a great layout? CSS classes are reusable too.
I agree with ryan_uk... The benefit is you can use CSS to layout your site exactly the way you want and with much less code, which makes the pages load faster and most certainly benefits SEO. Another good place to start is http://www.w3schools.com
