html/xml code Browser compatability

[Goosemaster]

Hi

My Home Page uses a variety of html, xml, and javascript, and as the w3c Validation page qeued up to my site points out, there are quite a few problems with it.

Speciffically, the two problems that I would like to rectify immediately are the orientation of the RSS feeds and the bottom bar which is from a CSS stylesheet.

As you can see, it will load up correctly in IE, but fails miserably in firefox.

InternetExplorer
Firefox.

Anyone have any ideas?

Why don't you correct your HTML first? Validated HTML won't necessary make your page look right, but it's pretty important to have some consistency.

FYI you should build your page using Firefox, then correct it for IE, not the other way round. Mozilla has pretty much the most accurate HTML rendering.. so if it works in Mozilla, it will likely work in a lot of other browsers too (except IE :|)

Cross-browser CSS compatibility is iffy even with perfect HTML code, so you might imagine the nightmares it may introduce with less-than-perfect code!

Gecko annoys me with its <hr> bug. :|
