IE Is The Devil, Either that or I suck at coding Options

[sheertalentx]

So, my navigation map and header link look fabulous in FF yet they are way off in IE. Also, I can't seem to get my content bar and sidebar to line up properly in IE6. All my coding is valid...whats going onn??

Here is my code...

Unfortunately this is just a part of web design. IE can be really infuriating at times but you have to keep at it until you can reach some form of compromise between IE and Firefox.
There is one trick that can help though-
If you insert an underscore such then the following coding is only recognised in Firefox-

CODE

_top: 100px; top: 90px;

That would ensure that when viewed in Firefox the element would be 100 pixels from the top, though when viewed in IE it would be only 90 pixels from the top.
