Can someone tell me what's wrong with my HTML please?

But when it's uploaded it looks like this:

Where have I gone wrong? Thanks.

BTW just noticed that it works fine in firefox, but not i.e. How can I fix it in i.e. without breaking it in firefox?

every thing looks OK, but you should be mistaking somewhere in table. Align center to the main table, I think that will make it ok.

Step #1 would be to get the source to validate

All your links point to a local C:\ hard drive location, you might want to update those.

Also, you are using a lot of deprecated tags, such as big, br, etc... those should be changed.

As far as my the table is not working, well you shouldn't put widths on there to begin with on a site like this. It is not needed.

But the problem looks like it is coming from this: You put 700 some pixels for the length of the table and then right when you get into the TD, you put it down to 500. I don't know if that is 500 pixels or not, but you should probably just eliminate the widths.

Also- it looks fine in IE8 standards mode.

In addition to the points brought up by kwvarga and Izzmo,

Your navigation image widths add up to 698 pixels, you set the table width for the navigation bar at 536 pixels.

I told you, you are mistaking somewhere in table earlier.

I had a look at your website for you and can tell you its your image and table, so edit those and your website will look better.
