Why Is My Site Messed Up Under MSIE?

I tested the site under Safari, Netscape, Mozilla, Firefox, OmniWeb, and iCab. The site works and behaves like it should. Under Opera, the navigation menus do not work. Under MSIE (PC), all of the text is centered, despite remembering to close all CENTER tags.
iCab came unglued about me using FONT and CENTER tags considering that it should be rendering according to HTML 4.0 standards.
Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong? Keep in mind I coded the template by hand and did not use ANY HTML creating programs.

The navigation menus work fine in my Opera.
I haven't used tables for a while, but isn't centered the standard alignment in a td, so that you have to set the alignment to left to get it out there?

There's a lot of syntax errors on the HTML - I'd sort them out first of all before tracking down the centering problem - http://validator.w3.org/
It looks like it may be the < center > tags that are causing the grief. You're already using CSS, so if I were you I'd stick all visual formatting rules in there and get rid of unnecessary markup.

I sorted a few of the syntax errors. As far as IE centering everything, it turns out it has to do with how IE interprets the CENTER tag in context with tables. IE will center everything regardless of what is in between the CENTER opening and closing tag. Netscape browsers will ignore CENTER within tables.
I simply added an "align" to the TABLE tag (where the main text body is) and produced the same desired results. Hopefully that will now tame IE's rendering.
