G<!--content-->well, first of all, you have a lot of syntax errors<br />

most of those are just alt attributes for images, but look at the other stuff as you have lots of things like align=middle and stuff which are wrong.<!--content-->Fix these first:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Add type="text/javascript" to every <script> tag.<br />
<br />
<br />
Add a type="text/css" attribute to every <style> tag.<br />
<br />
<br />
Remember to "Quote" all attributes, especially all "#FFFFFF" colors, all URLs, all "50%" sizes, and any other attribute value that contains anything other than a simple "A" to "Z" or "0" to "9" value. In HTML 4.01 it is recommended to quote all attribute values.<br />
<br />
<br />
Add alt="some text" to every <img > tag, the text reflecting what is in the dispayed image. On unimportant images, like spacer elements, a minimum of alt="" is fine. For bullet-point images, alt="*" is often used. Search engines do index the alt text. The alt attribute is a required element.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
After that, it will make the resulting very short error list much easier to look at than the present very long one.<!--content-->many thigns wrong with that layout. <br />
<br />
why so many style tags? only have 1 set or stik them into a css style sheet for external linking like giz said. also do not use capitals in the naming of style classes. and why do you have a style sheet and then also have the style tags in the document? NS is case synsative when it comes to that. also you might have a lot of styles that NS doesn't recognise. also you have a javascript error and IE won't even run your menu. <br />
<br />
so no, it doesn't look good in IE as well.<br />
<br />
not very consisitant in your coding, also I don't believe bordercolor is for table cells, only for tables.<br />
<br />
a lot of work is still left.<!--content-->
