I have my site up and I use firefox. Everything looks great in firefox, but i recently pulled my site up in IE and noticed it was displaying half the page below another half. Anyone have any ideas?

1 tip :
when using div's into divs for 2 columns, firefox subtracts the border/margin/padding from the width.
ie add's it 'en plus' to the div.
so if you have 1 big div of 700 and a column of 400 and a column of 300 but both with a border of 1, then for firefox, your column is 398 and 298 and for ie it is 402 and 302

Does this makes sence ?

Ok, well I am having a hard time finding where I need to change this. Can anyone direct me to where I need to look to find this?

look at this post : http://www.slimsakus.com/blog/index.php/links?cat=15
and remove/reduce that picture, and all will be ok.
That is the short answer.

The long answer will be : not to publish pictures that are bigger then your skins allowes.

The best answer will be : if you realy want to publish such big pictures from time to time, make changes in the css-file from the skin you are using.

Thank you for your help.

I did reduce the picture like you suggested. Didnt solve the problem. So i decided to try and remove completely. Didnt solve the problem either.

In the css-file, that would just be in the skins directory correct? I should just make the pixels wider?

Just thought I would update.

**EDIT**

Ok, I fixed it. I found where i needed to change it in the CSS stylesheet. changed it from 760 to 900 and it fixed it. Thanks again for the help.
