i was wondering why IE is displaying my blog page (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://blog.literside.net/">http://blog.literside.net/</a><!-- m -->) with a huge white space on the right, while mozilla firefox shows it the way i want, i assume its a CSS issue, but if not this (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://blog.literside.net/index.phps">http://blog.literside.net/index.phps</a><!-- m -->) is a link to the php that created the page, --if alot of the php is wrong it might be because i Download ed it as a free script and then using my not so immense knolage tried to modify it to fit my page.
any help is appreciated
since someone is bound to do this eventually: your html (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://blog.literside.net/&verbose=1">http://www.validator.w3.org/check?uri=h ... &verbose=1</a><!-- m -->) is not valid, which is likely the cause for this problemwell ive been trying to get rid of my errors, but im having troubble understanding all of them <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fblog.literside.net%2F&charset=iso-8859-1+%28Western+Europe%29&doctype=XHTML+1.0+Transitional&verbose=1">http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http% ... &verbose=1</a><!-- m -->
i think i made it worse, because it now doesnt look at all how it should in ANY browser
HELP
alright, this should give you a decent start:
1) errors 1-8: change the meta tag in your head to <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; chartset-iso-8859-1" /> and lose the </meta>
2) tags and attributes must be in lower case. this should take care of about half your errors
3) error 16: i don't believe you can have numbers at the start of an id
4) errors 17-19,44,51-53 change <b /> to <b>
5) errors 20-25,28-37,40-43 change <br> to <br />
6) errors 26&27,38&39,45-50,54-56 you must quote all attributesthanks for the help its all valid now

i was curious why it only works if i tell the validator that its XHTML 1.0 Transitional Encoding: iso-8859-1 --isnt there a way for it to detect that automaticly?
---thanks againI believe its your html tag thats messing it up, try changing it to this:<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
