No we cannot because you gave us nothing to work with. No code, no link. Nothing.

[sydneycraig]

it is because IE6 is rubbish and should not be supported!

No, it's because you can't code. Now go back to hiding under whatever rock you crawled up from.

In the meanwhile, the rest of us will take the time to actually answer questions rather than trolling the threads.

How about you either:

A) give us some markup so we have something to apply those CSS rules to, or
B) give us a link to the project

?

Furthermore, you have BBCode formatters for code. Please use them.

There's a bug in IE6 when it comes to using left or right margins.

Trying adding the following to whatever DIV contains that banner:

Code: Select all

* html #your-div-id {
display: inline;
}

Why? He's not using any floats. There aren't any bugs in margins if you aren't using float.

Are you using a reset stylesheet before applying any other CSS to the page?

Hey everyone,

Here's the link to the project, http://www.elizapillars.org/leavesdew/index.html

remove width and margins from #logo, #header & #page.

change #wrapper to:

Code: Select all

#wrapper {
  width: 890px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

Andy,

Thanks so much! That fixed the issue. What exactly was the problem?
