My site looks good in Firefox, but sux in IE. What can I do to make my site looks ok in both? Why the red in IE?

Any ideas?

found this in the IE source:

The problem with IE in this instance is that it interprets F0F0F0 as red instead of the grey it should be (I discovered this by testing it for a bit

) you can solve it by bringing F0F0F0 to lower case like this f0f0f0
Hope this helped

Nice catch. Since I've been reading up on this stuff, it's stressed you should always type in lower case now since some of the new things used are case sensitive.

Thanks very much for the help Michiel, Now I have a problem that when I add a background color the color goes past the table/border in Firefox but not in IE. Also everything is aligned to the left inside the table in IE.
Any advice?

Thanks,
Jeff
