Just can't stop...

Ok - i've solved the IE issue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yayayayayayayayayay!

The separate css file did the trick. Plus I went and stuck a black border around all of my divs to work out exactly what the hell was going on. ie was adding the padding twice or something and completely throwing all divs out of place. Apparently this works differently on ie versions earlier than 7. I am testing my site on version 7 and all looks good there. I applied the Tanteck hack in the hope that it will also solve earlier ie version issues. won't know for sure until i find a machine with an earlier version. Will do for now though...

In fact, it looks better re alignment on the ie version now, so I'm going to go back and stick black borders on everything in the normal css file and see what it looks like. Should probably wait until I get home though so I can test on Safari at the same time.

This all being said, the site actually looks fine as it is right now in all the browsers I wanted it to work in. Perhaps I should just leave it and work on my actual assignment instead...that woudl make sense! I wonder if you ever feel like something like a site is ever 'finished'...
