Ok, some of you may have seen my other thread in genereal web building, but anyways, I am having a bit of a problem getting this site to work in IE 5.
http://www.freeipb.net/ibe
Basically, due to IE5 not supporting CSS or doctypes properly, my code is causing the right had navigational menu to start below the content block. Its to do with the XHTML 1.0 box model I think, and the way padding works.
As you can see, it validates XHTML 1.0 strict at the moment, which is good, and I want to keep it that way. I know of a method for loading an alternate stylesheet in ie. The:
<!-->
<link.....
<!-->
method which use the CSS in IE but not in any other browser. The problem is my site works in IE6, so using that method would cause it to break in IE 6 becuase of how I would have to use the CSS.
Finally, I dont want to use any form of javascript to detect browser ect.
This is alot I know, but does anyone have any suggestions on how I could make it work in IE5?
Thanks
Matt
