Internet Explorer difficulties

I just never use Internet Explorer so I didn’t notice that my CSS mods on the Wordpress default theme do not render my header correctly in IE. Sorry. Please use Firefox, everything is perfect there. But I will look into fixing this….

    I currently don’t have access to IE5, 6, or 7 right now, on this specific computer, but I know that pre-defined margins, padding, and borders can often get in the way of everything aligning precisely. Whenever I design a layout, I zero out allot of the pre-styled elements that are inherent in each browser’s base-css file, and then start styling from there so that it’s consistent accross a majority of browsers; especially IE. Eric Meyer recently did allot of work to put together a decent css-reset, available at the link I provided here. Feel free to sift through it as needed; though I wouldn’t use it as is with your layout because it’d probably break it even worse.

    Thanks very much, Francis. I don’t have time to work on this fix right now, so IE users will have to suffer (it really doesn’t affect readability). But I will take up your suggestions as soon as I can…
