Re: Window formatting - Firefox vs. IE

David,

The selection of "quirks mode" versus "standards mode" is the biggest
factor I've noticed in the overall behaviour in IE8. (I haven't
tested in IE6 or IE7.)

The quickest way to see if that's the issue is to hit F12 and try the
three different document modes. If your stuff works in standards mode
and fails in quirks mode, change that to be the default version that
you serve up.

Jim.
