    Did you check with w3.org on XML compliance? They have a validation page over there that should help you out as far as making it cross-browser compliant.

    What do you mean XML site ? perhaps you mean XHTML site ?
    or do you want to display some XML data ?

    Also what is the problem you have viewing the site in IE ?

    I am using IE 6, and the site seems to be working just fine...

    ( very beautiful site by the way )


    Now your site does load some problematic XML indeed. (although my IE 6 seems to have no problem with it...)

    the file http://theimpulsedesign.com/xml/portfolio.xml is not well formed..

    the structure is 

    
<collection> 
  <gallery title="2D WORKS"> 
    <image ..>..</image>
    .....
  </gallery>
  <gallery title="3D WORKS"> 
    <image ..>..</image>
    .....
  </gallery>
</collection>
    Code (xml):
    well.. you are missing the last two tags..
    You do not close the second gallery tag and you do not close the collection tag


    hope this helps

    Hmm...

    the most important (a glaring one)..
    you have the <html> tag at the end of your document instead of the start... and you never close it as well..

    another thing (not an error, but redundant) is that you have your analytics code 5 times in there ...
    once should be enough

    take care

    well a normal document structure is

    
<html>
 <head>
  <title>...</title>
  <!-- other elements that go in the head section here -->
 </head>

 <body>
  <!-- CONTENT OF THE PAGE -->
 </body>
</html>
    HTML:
    but you have 
    
  <!-- YOU ARE MISSING THE STARTING HTML TAG HERE -- YOU SHOULD PUT A <html> HERE -->
 <head>
  <title>...</title>
  <!-- other elements that go in the head section here -->
 </head>

 <body>
  <!-- CONTENT OF THE PAGE -->
 </body>
<html> <!-- YOU HAVE THE START OF THE HTML HERE -- IT SHOULD BE </html> -->
    HTML:
    hope this helps a bit

    .. yes but there is no xhtml tag ..
    put replace xhtml with html and go from there..

    also know that some errors that the validator finds can cause everything after that error to seems like an error .. and it will show too many errors when in reality there is only one..

    so always try to fix the errors from the top down ..
