| IE is messing up CSS ... |
 |
|
I'm just setting up a new forum, and it looks ok in Firefox, but it does not look ok in IE. Here's the forum that I'm setting up. The forum always stretches out and goes beyond the right side border. How can I fix this problem? How part of CSS is messing this up?

It's sad but still 80% of people are using IE.
I find real problems whenever I try to centre.

First tip is to avoid applying 'widths' and 'padding/border/margin' to an object because of the box model problem: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_model_bug
Second tip is to not waste your time working on a fluid layout using CSS. Clashes between IE and the standards compliant browsers will be a never ending problem. Get one from here and modify it, or just go for fixed width. (I nearly went insane trying to get fluid widths, CSS, IE and Firefox to cooperate!!)

I found out what's causing the problems. I had to have the following:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
