Why does my site distort in IE?

    I just built a site and some people have told me it looks messed up in IE (though I don't see it using my IE). They sent me a jpg capture of what it looks like. The graphics are expanding and pushing away from each other. But for some reason this isn't a problem in other browsers.

    The url is http://www.andrewsremodelingllc.com

    I've also attached the jpg incase it isn't glitching for you.

    Any suggestions? I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks.

    To be quite honest, it's because IE is just a pile of rubbish, Most sensible users would user firefox or chrome etc , which, im using FF and i ca see appsolutly no problem with it at all

    Running your page through the W3C HTML Validator, you have 18 errors and 2 warnings. One important thing is that you have not included a DOCTYPE declaration, the browsers don't know which (X)HTML standard you are coding to and are guessing (incorrectly apparently) which one was used.

    All your leftmargin, topmargin, marginwidth, and marginheight stuff is invalid. These were never part of the HTML specifications.

    The table tag does not have a height attribute.

    You also have 9 errors according to the W3C CSS Validator.

    Correct these errors and see if that fixes the problem. If not, you have still eliminated invalid coding as the cause of the problem.
