Default IE7 Margin Problem - Please Help - 07-30-2008 , 12:16 AM






I am having a problem with having margins display correctly in IE7,
Firefox and Safari. I am not sure if it is the "double margin error"
or something else. Any help would be appreciated. The file tabs at the
top content area should be flush left and the light blue frame should
line up under the logo graphic. Looks great in Safari and Firefox but
I can't get it to line up in IE7.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No need to include css or html given you supply URL.

Why not first fix up the errors mentioned at the W3C validation services
at

<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/>

and
