    Hi,
    I am having trouble with IE browser. I can open website properly on google chrome but when I open it on Internet explorer, i am having some trouble.

    In google chrome text is at some distance from picture but in IE text is adjacent to picture. Can anyone please tell me how to resolve this error.
    thanks

    Since you're new you cannot post a URL yet, but without seeing the site in question you are basically asking us to do brain surgury over the telephone in 1876.

    It would also help to know what version of IE, since there are now basically 4 versions still in common circulation... what with 2/3rds of windows mobile devices still having IE6 as the latest, some offices still stuck on Win98 and 2k which also means IE6 is the latest, and no IE9 for XP...

    Though if it is a spacing issue, that could mean a lack of resetting/declaring margins and padding and the defaults are messing with you, a lack of a doctype so IE is in quirks mode, something in the document forcing it back into quirks mode, or just plain faulty code and design built without actual testing. Could be any of a thousand different things really which is why we need to know what site it is.

    Talk about a gibberish response... not only is it piss poor engrish moist goodry, it appears to have absolutely NOTHING to do with the OP's question.

    @sask1234 -- got your PM and was looking at the site, but the holiday got in the way. You appear to have built the site with a WYSIWYG, and a really poor one at that since it's got endless pointless static CSS inlined in the markup, a pale imitation of semantic markup with nonsensical heading orders, and tons of bloat and pointless comments... Mated to the train wreck that is the CSS, I'm shocked it renders properly in any browser.

    My advice is throw it all away and start over writing ACTUAL HTML and CSS, instead of dragging things around in any sort of "design view" as that is the FASTEST road to failure there is.

    It might also help to leverage a bit of server side scripting like php or asp so the bits that are common to all your pages can be shared.

    I'll provide a deeper explanation in a while of what I'm seeing wrong -- just waking up from an overeating induced 11 hour sleep.

    -- edit -- though your website appears to be completely gone now.

    I never fault anyone's use of English - it's the only language I'm good with, so my attempt to post in <insert any other language> probably wouldn't even be laughable.

    But not only does the response not have anything to do with the OP's question, it has nothing to do with reality. Cross-browser compatibility has as much to do with which OS you write the site in as it has to do with the phase of the moon at the time you write it. I could write a site in CP/M (I still have 2 computers that can run it), and it would render the same as if I had used Linux, Windows or SunOS to write it.

    Just another example of the quality of a lot of the responses here. :)
