Heya guys,

im really sorry but i dont have the problem site on the net(no hosting)
hope ya willing to help me anyway, im searching for the problem for 2 days now.. glare.gif


The site is perfect in Opera and FF. But when i viewed it with IE my eyes teared.

-Text is way too big
-the menu on the left sucks(some kinda weird blue bar)
-Banner is not well

I tried to sort out with css validator, but i didnt understand

THE CSS
CODE
body {
font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background: #41383C;
margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */
padding: 0;
text-align: center; /* this centers the container in IE 5* browsers. The text is then set to the left aligned default in the #container selector */
color: #000000;
}
.twoColFixLtHdr #container {
width: 900px; /* using 20px less than a full 800px width allows for browser chrome and avoids a horizontal scroll bar */
background: #5E7D7E;
margin: 0 auto; /* the auto margins (in conjunction with a width) center the page */
border: 7px solid #5E7D7E;
text-align: left; /* this overrides the text-align: center on the body element. */
margin-top: 1px;
}
.twoColFixLtHdr #header {
background-image:url(Bannerindiaanzwart.jpg);
background-position: center center;
padding: 0 0px 0 0px; /* this padding matches the left alignment of the elements in the divs that appear beneath it. If an image is used in the #header instead of text, you may want to remove the padding. */
border-left: 1px groove #00FFFF;
border-right: 1px groove #00FFFF;
border-bottom: 2px groove #00FFFF;

}
.twoColFixLtHdr #header h1 {
margin: 0; /* zeroing the margin of the last element in the #header div will avoid margin collapse - an unexplainable space between divs. If the div has a border around it, this is not necessary as that also avoids the margin collapse */
padding: 10px 0; /* using padding instead of margin will allow you to keep the element away from the edges of the div */
}
.twoColFixLtHdr #navigatie {
float: left; /* since this element is floated, a width must be given */
width: 150px; /* the actual width of this div, in standards-compliant browsers, or standards mode in Internet Explorer will include the padding and border in addition to the width */
font-family: verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: bold;
width: 180px;
border-right: 1px solid #666;
padding: 0;
margin-bottom: 1em;
background-color: #2B547E;
color: #000000;
}
#navigatie ul {
list-style: none;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#navigatie ul li {
margin: 0;
border-top: 1px groove #736F6E;
}
#navigatie ul li a {
display: block;
padding: 2px 2px 2px 4px;
border-left: 20px solid #348781;
border-right: 1px solid #69c;
border-bottom: 1px solid #369;
background-color: #3EA99F;
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
width: 150px;
}
html>body #navigatie ul li a {
width: auto;
}
#navigatie ul li a:hover {
border-left: 10px solid #347235;
border-right: 1px solid #69c;
border-bottom: 1px solid #369;
background-color: #69f;
color: #fff;
}


.twoColFixLtHdr #mainContent {
margin: 0 0 0 200px; /* the left margin on this div element creates the column down the left side of the page - no matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends. */
padding: 0 20px; /* remember that padding is the space inside the div box and margin is the space outside the div box */
font-size:9px;

}
.twoColFixLtHdr #footer {
padding: 0 10px 0 20px; /* this padding matches the left alignment of the elements in the divs that appear above it. */
background: #348781;
border: 1px groove #00FFFF;
}
.twoColFixLtHdr #footer p {
margin: 0; /* zeroing the margins of the first element in the footer will avoid the possibility of margin collapse - a space between divs */
padding: 3px 0; /* padding on this element will create space, just as the the margin would have, without the margin collapse issue */
}
.fltrt { /* this class can be used to float an element right in your page. The floated element must precede the element it should be next to on the page. */
float: right;
margin-left: 8px;
}
.fltlft { /* this class can be used to float an element left in your page */
float: left;
margin-right: 8px;
}
.clearfloat { /* this class should be placed on a div or break element and should be the final element before the close of a container that should fully contain a float */
clear:both;
height:0;
font-size: 1px;
line-height: 0px;
}
.style2 {
color: #000000;
font-weight: bold;
}
.style3 {color: #000000}

Ciao

This sounds like you've adjusted your font size properly in the other browsers, but not in MSIE.

Is your document triggering quirks mode? MSIE gets padding and height wrong in quirks mode.

Without seeing the code of your page online (so we also see the images), it's difficult for us to help you.
Search at google for free hosting services. Personally, I can't recommend any as I've never used one.

Never heard of Renascence Bulldogs before. I thought they were bullmastiffs.

Hm. How come the content is on top of the logo in IE? I'd have guessed postioning but you don't seem to use that. blink.gif

Seems the banner is a background-image of the #header DIV:

CODE
.twoColFixLtHdr #header {
    background-image:url(Bannerindiaanzwart.jpg);


An element's height may change if a user/visitor changes text size in MSIE (using View > Font Size in the browser toolbar). You can avoid that by giving div#header a fixed height (say 207px).

But I'd rather suggest using an inline image (instead of a background image) with proper ALT text:

CODE
<h1><img src="http://smitska.woelmuis.nl/Bannerindiaanzwart.jpg" width="700" height="207" alt="Bulls for life"></h1>


In any case HTML does not allow you to put P elements inside an H1 element:
CODE

    <h1><center>
   <p></p>
      <p>&nbsp;</p>
      <p>&nbsp;</p>
    </center>
    </h1>

Oh. It happens in other browsers too (except if you use page zoom)... I assumed it was an IE only problem.

Instead of the "header" DIV, perhaps? But if you do that you must change the CSS as well.
