I have a DIV layout && there are some sections that just won't appear correctly in IE.

I don't know if there is anything I can do on my part, or if it something that is completely out of my hands.

I defined a new font span, I suppose you would call it, in my style sheet && the font won't display correctly in IE.

Screenshots:

IE

You can see in FF, the font is displaying correctly. Also, the comment box && contact sections are displaying normally, whereas in IE they're distorted.

If anyone can help, it really would be greatly appreciated.

Please thumb your images.

It's possible... I can't really tell you what to change without being able to see what coding you used :/ a link to your profile or your css/html would be nice...

Can you post your code & provide a link to your myspace?

Oh yeah

probably should have done that.

my stlye sheet is kind of a mess, but it makes sense to me, so sorry in advance if it's kind of all over the place.

CODE

"f" & "h" would be the new font span classes I defined.

&& also

CODE

I don't know how much of that you did or didn't need. As you can tell, I'm fairly amateurish.

Thanks again

Honestly, I don't know whats wrong here. It should work, although just to make sure can I see your codes for your div boxes?

I know this may sound laboring, but perhaps inputing the background color code tags individually on each text you want it with?

Did you try using span instead of making a new element? Right now you're trying to define the styles of an element (tag) which i don't think IE will recognize. [I played with what css you had in with div on my test page here]

Example:

CODE

.h {
color: white;
font-family: times;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 22pt;
font-weight:normal;
border: none;
letter-spacing:-3.0;
line-height:13px;
background-color: FEC192;
text-transform: lowercase;
display: inline;
position: left;
top: 9px;
left: 0px;
display: block;
text-align:center;
}

<div class="books">
<span class="heading">[[Me]]</span>
<div class="content">
<span class="h">what do you want to know?</span><br/>
<span class="f">status: single && loving it<br/>
here for: anything :]<br/>
orientation: gay [[&&proud of it]]<br/>
hometown: chi-town<br/>
ethnicity: mexican-american<br/>
zodiac sign: gemini [[13 June 1989]]<br/>
religion: catholic <br/>
smoker: nope <br/>
drinker: "no"<br/>
children: maybe<br/>
education: high school <br/></span>
