Re: Can someone help me
Build in other browsers then fix for IE. You also have no doc type and many many other issues.

Yeah, it's way easier to fix IE when it looks good in Firefox than vice versa.

Please write a more meaningful topic next time
Here's some reading material on the IE vs FF for testing Don’t use IE as your primary testing browser Developing your site using Firefox Which browsers should I test in?

Re: Why does my site only look decent in IE6?
It's difficult to say what could help you since I can't really tell what it is you want the final page to look like. If you could shed some light on what you want the page to look like in the end, then I'd see if I can help you.

Re: Why does my site only look decent in IE6?
Ok well i revised it a little. Now can someone tell me how I could make it so that the left column thingy is 100% and doesnt pass the footer thing at the bottom? Because when I set it to 100, it went pass the footer and scrolled the page.
Oh and thanks for the tip about using FF or another browser for testing. Thats what I did and it looks the same in IE7 and opera as well.

Re: Why does my site only look decent in IE6?
Wow you've come along way! Way to go!!
My guess is that you have a height of 500 px set for your side div. Decrease that until you get content.

Re: Why does my site only look decent in IE6?
lol cool, does it really look much better than before? I guess its because I did it in FF first. I never knew that it would work but it did. though I still have to fix it for IE 6

Re: Why does my site only look decent in IE6?
Just incorporate conditional comments and an IE specific style sheet to fix only the css that needs it.
an example of conditionals is here: http://www.newguyinennis.com/samples...s/faux_frames/
