Wordpress css and ie6 - css

my website : http://www.equipe94.com have a two column layout and in ie6 the right column is flushed at the button... it look like and inline problem, but even WITH the inline widget.. it's still at the bottom..
any idea to fix a wordpress template to play well with ie6 ?
thanks in advance
n.b.
As mentioned in the comment... my page don't validate...
after fixing the multiples problems now I validate in XHTML 1.0 Strict...
but the problem is still there !

You've got a few missing closing </div> tags that might be the problem: [Invalid]Markup Validation of equipe94.com - W3C Markup Validator. Scroll down in the validation report to see line numbers and source code.
You also should work with the IE6 specific style sheet that is in your theme at /headway-166/media/css/ie6.css

I have found the problem.... it's was an hentry that overflow the content box.... ie6 detect it !... in css i have add overflow:hidden then it's ok !.. thanks anyway

Internet Explorer Div Issue

I am having problems with my webpage. On all browsers the div aligns perfectly. However, on all versions of Internet Explorer the Div shows out of line. Here is an image of the difference:

I would really love the help, IE has done this to me several times. I would love to learn what to do in these types of situations. I read somewhere about an IE specific CSS file that would fix this but I did not fully understand what needed to be changed in this new CSS file. All help appreciated.

Try fixing the issues presented by the W3 validator. http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fkynikosdesign.com%2Fcontact.php&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&verbose=1
You can add this and it should work (at least it did just through in-browser modifications)
after your normal css
<!--[if IE]>
<style type="text/css">
#mainbox{padding-left:0;}
#servicesright{float:left;}
</style>
<![endif]-->
That aside, you're also missing some closing tags it would seem and probably the reason for the weirdness.
Issues I detected on your page structure so far (which are causing the display issue):
#main-container should not have width
you are using table for your form layout which is a big mistake (it's pushing the whole content together down)
as a workaround removing width in (1) and width=100% in (2) will fix your problem butI highly recommend to follow good practices for your page layout. (i.e. using div instead of table).

Wordpress template footer not displaying as it should

I've just done a wordpress template and the footer isn't 100% width like it should be.

Any ideas why?
Am I missing a div ending anywhere?
Thanks
There's a missing closing </div>. See [Invalid] Markup Validation of 79.170.44.113 yorkshirecouriers.co.uk ?page_id=8 - W3C Markup Validator. Scroll down in the validation report to see line numbers and source code.
You are getting style for footer from a CSS file. Pull up styles.php and view settings for footer. Or you can put footer in a only without any sort of styling.

Why does my website have no CSS styling in Internet Explorer 8?

My website (http://www.cryptum.net) seems to be missing all CSS styling in Internet Explorer 8. My drop down menu isn't showing. Everything I have styled isn't showing. Can anyone tell me how I can fix this?
Put
<link ...>
elements into
<head>
of the page.
You can also check W3C Validator: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=www.cryptum.net&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
There are really many errors in your document.
I suspect it's because your HTML markup is totally messed up. Choose a doctype and make sure your markup validates for it. I'd suggest HTML 4 transitional as a starting point, it shouldn't be too hard to make it validate.
Please move your
<style> </style>
tag into head, should fix the problem, alternatively you can use php to load the style-sheets as a fool-proof method.

CSS Layout Problem

Here's my page
It looks correct in Firefox, but of course in Internet Explorer, there's an issue.
The main body of the page is not displaying correctly. The left and right divs are not showing the white background that I'm trying to get them to.
Your HTML appears to be broken. For example <div id="mainbody" is not closed. Run it through a validator and fix all the markup problems.
Try separating your shortcut for background in your #left id in css. IE may not be parsing it correctly.
The #right div looks OK (I'm using IE7).
You need to change <div id="mainbody" to <div id="mainbody"> as i told you earlier.
Use the W3C validator: [Invalid] Markup Validation of modastudio.com/docs_new/bostondentalposters.shtml - W3C Markup Validator.
You've got a bad doctype that will throw IE into quirks mode, as well as missing tags, double charset calls (that should be UTF instead of 8859), duplicated meta tags, etc.....
You're also nesting tables and lists inside of paragraph tags which is invalid markup for the doctype you're using. A handful of the meta tags are not closed correctly along with capitalization of attributes which are also not allowed with the selected doctype. The stylesheet link tag is not closed correctly. The images tags in the table are not close correctly nor are the break tags.
Fix the html errors first and then see where you're at with your layout.
Good luck and hope this helps some.
Maybe not really an answer to your question, but since you seem to develop in Firefox, you might want to try the HTML Validator extension. Makes this kind of development a lot easier.

Does IE print [table]header and footer properly (css settings)?

I need to prepare print css style for some page. It's possible to have footer on every printed page?
I tried the code, I've found on the web:
display:block;position:fixed; bottom:0px;
but it works only in Firefox.
I can try to fix it with table, but in Q. here: CSS: Repeat table headers in print mode is info, that it doesn't work in IE5 (maybe I made some error, but it seems, that it doesn't work even in IE7).
Does anybody fixed problem with printing footer on every page in IE? Doesn't matter if with tables or without them.
Thanks for help.
I do not think it is possible to print headers and footer using IE current, since Even in IE8 it is compliance to CSS 2.1. But there are other tweaks to get around the problem. Hope this URL will help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd433064(VS.85).aspx.
PS: The URL you referenced, on the bottom of the page specifically said works only on safari.
