I have a table, and cannot get it the correct size. The left size is supose to be a side bar, and the main content is on the right side.
As of now it looks and works fine in Safari. But in Internet Explorer the sides are switched. (In Netscape nothing happens because it uses iframes.)
What am I doing wrong?
Here is the site.

It looks fine to me in IE 6 under XP. Of course Tripod adds a lot of trash to your page and puts it into the wrong place.
What version of IE are you checking with?

Hey, thanks guys. I just had another friend check it out, and it worked fine.... it must be my browser.... I am using IE 5.X on my iMac.
Thanks for the advice, I really hate Tripod, although I have been using Safari (Apple's new Web brower) and it blocks ALL popup windows... I forgot I had them... :D
Well thanks again!

i suggest you try out Breezeland (http://www.breezeland.com). free hosting with PHP, mySQL database and plenty of space/bandwidth for a small site. you can use browser or FTP program upload like me and its all free. you also get 5 webmails that i dont use with even the minimal free version. you get 10 on the 2nd and 15 on the 3rd if you want that much. but the one tiny downside is that you have to click a certain amount of banners in your control panel there per week or you get shutdown. but just make a note to do that and you wont forget. check it out see how you like it. if you dont have a domain its a sub but thats not a biggy if you you dont want to pay $20 a year for a domain. no popups or added banners on there so you got lots of freedom. and its not psycho about links from forums like geocities is. really great site cheap if you ask me. you should atleast go look.

I looked at it in IE 5.1 for MAC and the border of the cell that separates your links from your "content" is way to the right so you only have a narrow window of about 10% of the whole table row for your content. I would suggest changing the width of the cells to percentages since you started with percentages and then switched to a fixed length. If you are satisfied with how it looks....OK I guess.
