My site renders correctly in firefox but in IE it doesnt render correctly. The site is http://www.cubetec.co.za/wordpress/ The content is overlapping the left menu when it shouldn't I have bold where i think the problems could be but when i make changes it doesn't render properly. I have also attached the css file for easier viewing. Thanks .clear{ clear:both; line-height:0px; height:0px; font-size:0px; border:none; margin:0; padding:0;} #top { width: auto; height:180px; padding-left: 50%; margin-left: 0px; background-repeat: no-repeat;

Link doesn't work but your problem isn't at all unusual. It's hard to get properly written markup to work in IE since it's such a lousy browser.
Finally got it fixed for future reference "Anytime you use margin: auto; go ahead and put text-align:center on the parent div, which in your case is the body tag."
