Hi,

My web page looks fine in FireFox, but broken in IE.

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks,

Phil

You can probably view the code even though I use frames, but here is the code with CSS.

No, page is looking wrong in both browsers. Two of your DIV tags are overlaping

#assignmentblock {
	width:30%;
	height:400px;
	}	

#extras {
	position: absolute;
	top:28px;
	left:300px;
	width:400px;
	border: 2px solid;
	margin-left:30px;
	padding:18px;
	font-size:22px;
	color:#666666;
	}

This tutorial will help you solve your problem. If however you can't work it out just let me know I will correct it and explain

it looks fine in IE to me... just for some extra spacing to the sides

add this to your css teach

*{margin:0;
padding:0;
}

It's the same (and working) in both browsers for me.

That will be because plarsen111 removed this section from original code ;)

<div id="extras">
<p><img src="owen.jpg" height="241" width="182">Owen got a little case of pnemonia. Doing much better now. He spent a few nights in the hospital. He didn't like the "pokes", but he sure did get a lot of toys.
