This site:

http://tchomeshow.com/test/

Renders fine in every browser I have tried except IE on Windows XP.

The top right menu should be flush right... any idea how to fix this for IE on windows?

p.s. nothing works on the site, and I am no designer so I am doing this site as a favor, don't bust my chops HAHAHA

hate to tell you, but it also looks kinda broken in Firefox. shouldn't the center well and the footer line up to the edge, or at least the same place as the top?

edit, odd that only shows up on the first page draw... if you drag the window it fixes itself. hm.

IE's CSS support has been... lacking for the past several years.

IE doesn't render correctly because it sucks. Unfortunately, it's a dead elephant on the Web's back: no one really wants it to be there, but it's there and it has to be dealt with.

Unfortunately, I don't have a Windows box at the moment, so I'll have to look more closely tomorrow.

I'd suggest cutting out pieces in a methodical manner until you find the offending code. Once you have found it, share this block with us and perhaps we can better serve you

Do you have this in your css

body, html {margin:0; padding:0;}

On your menu set padding and margin to 0 too and position it right with float:right;
