Problems in IE 6 - Any Suggestions on Fixing It?

[hbixler03]

Ok I do Wordpress design and for some reason I have this template that in IE 6 you have to scroll down to see the posts. I have checked the designs on iE 6 before install onto the clients host and it is fine, but once I install it the theme starts messing up in IE 6. I can't figure out what is wrong with it. Any suggestions on what it could be? Any suggestions on how I can fix it?

Is it online? If so, we could probably help you better if we could see it. Link?

Try reducing the width of the container that holds your content.
Sometimes, there is the problem.

I see you made it work...

No, it works in every browser except IE 6. I just checked it in IE 6 and it wasn't working still, I have also had my clients tell me that it doesn't work in IE 6 too. Could it be the computer??? Is it working for you?

Shrink the size of your middle DIV by a few pixels or so.

IE6 likes to add extra pixels which is the common cause of the problem you're having.

Simply making one or more of the divs slightly smaller will resolve the issues.

I couldn't check it 'till now in IE6, I just saw it in IE7 on Vista, but now I see what you mean...

have you tried to set the vertical-align: top for the middle container in the css file ? also check to see if there is a padding-top set. If it's not add this:
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;

For the container that actually holds the content (I know, it sounds awful) set:
margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;

Let me know after you do this so I could go and check it in IE6.
