Okay guys - lots of CSS breaking going on in IE7 alone - I'll Check lower end IE's once we fix these issues:

All tables break apart terribly. I checked out your css and html coding and feel that you are trying to accomplish this way harder than needed. Instead of having 3 cells for headerLeft, headerMiddle and Header Right (I am talking where forum index resides) - just have a single cell with the background that repeats. Then have forumLeft and forumRight be a div that is floated to the right - and to the left. This will fix your top corner issues.

About the bottom mis alignments - I would loose the bottom corners - more work than is needed. I see that you are trying to accomplish a liquid site but this is breaking it more - so the less moving pieces the better.

I used this style of development on this site: http://scaua.org/

As you'll see percentages are good, but no where near perfect. Anyways - let me know when you have these things fixed and I will look at them closer as well as verification issues.

Take Care Guys,

Greg

Thanks man, I can fix these issues tonight. I hadn't even looked at it in IE yet.

I have avoided using floats anywhere on the site this time as they have a habit to breaking the layout when you dynamically change something in javascript. They dont always expand as they should when the content becomes larger than previously.

This was a big part of the glitchyness of the old css.

Apparently IE does not support CSS "border-spacing" statement.

... its like the most basic thing!!! Why not!

Dangit - I totally forgot the correct business rules in dealing with telling someone that they need to fix something:

- Positive
- Negative
- Positive

Well - better late than never.

Well guys, I think that you guys have done a great job on this new design and layout - it works fine in Firefox but [Insert First Post Here]. But I know you guys will do a brilliant job on it. Good Luck.
