Thanks for your response. What doctype would you suggest? Not really up-to-date on HTML5 yet. The church specifically requested for marquee, and I've told them it's out of style and can get annoying, but they really want one on the index page, but not on the other pages. I'll give the CSS float a try, forgot about it. Thanks!I think the biggest issue is that you are using some unadvisable techniques. 1. Don't use the old transitional doctype. Step up to HTML5. It's the best way to ensure consistency. 2. Don't use the old marquee element. Users really hate it. If you MUST have one, try using a jQuery plugin like this. 3. Don't use absolute positioning. Try using the CSS float property instead. -
I'm having issues with this website I'm working on (temporary location for sharing): http://zach-php.host-ed.me/sjucc_new/ In Firefox and Chrome, it's coming up exactly how I want it to. However, when it comes to IE, it will push the Church's info and the marquee past the right side of the viewable page (i.e. you have to scroll right to see it), and the border is around the page, not at the width I set it to and the height to only surround the main content of the page. I've tried messing around with other DOCTYPEs, but can't seem to get anything to work properly. I'm sure I have something wrong in the CSS that I'm overlooking. It would help to have a fresh set of eyes. One last thing, only the index page is online. I won't get started with the other pages on the site until the format is correct with all three browsers. Thanks in advance! - Zach
