    Hi

    Have a site restaurantreviewed(dot)com. The template loads centered in FF and Opera but text off to left side in IE.

    Is there a way to correct this?

    Thanks in Advance

    Larry

    Hi

    IE will be in quirks mode, due to you have not delared a DTD (document type definition). Without this, IE doesnt know how to render your web page, add a DTD and that should sort the problem.

    Tried a couple different DTD, still doesn't seem to want to work. I added <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">


    to the index.php. Is this the right DTD or do I have to add them to all the files?

    Oh my God, i just took a quick look at the code and it is a mess. You have two <html> tags, two <doctype's ....I am too tired and too afraid to look deeper into it. If by tomorrow when i wake up you haven't resolved it, once i get some time will take a look into it.

    Hi Larry S:)
    In FF the design is perfect except for this small thing appearing at the top
    <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" language="java" import="java.sql.*" errorPage="" %>
    Code (markup):
    In IE(6.0.xx) the design is centered but the content is not aligned properly.

    Ok Larry S
    I saved your page & tried this, it worked for me
    Edit this in your style.css
    original
    .dc {
	VERTICAL-ALIGN: top; WIDTH: 303px
}
    Code (markup):
    Edit to
    .dc {
	VERTICAL-ALIGN: top; WIDTH: 303px; display: inline;
}
    Code (markup):
