    Unhappy Driving Me Nuts on IE

    Hi guys,

    On my site, http://www.lakerstats.com I notice only on IE, that near the top, after the "Uniforms" link that the three bars (white, purple, yellow) are not flush right. It's only on the home page, and ONLY on IE. Does it on 7 and 8. I think I have the cause down to the text of the stories, but I can't for the life of me figure out why it's stopping the three bars from going flush right. Yeah a lot of my code is antiquated tables, but I just don't feel like re-writing the entire site right now, it's A LOT of pages. So I need to make due with what I have.

    I never use, I use Firefox and everything looks fine, so god knows how long it's been screwy on IE. I actually thought at one point it was all fine, I wouldn't have left it before had I seen that. But it's been a long time since I used IE as I have a Mac now.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Don't know what happen before but managed to get there this time.

    Unfortunately not sure what the problem is. After the Uniforms link on the row beginning All-time roster there is a white and yellow bar. There is a purple which has the appearance of a bar before the white and another after the yellow (mirroring the left hand side). The purple does not match the background of behind the Uniform link or the purple of the (white, yellow, purple) bars above.

    I have look at both IE7 and IE8 but I am not discerning any difference from what I am seeing in Firefox or Chrome.

    On thing I did notice is that your html begins with

    Code:
    <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
    whereas what the probably meant is

    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    Not that that helps matters any since html markup does not conform to that standard.
