this is the first page i have done in CSS. when opened in IE there are spaces between links on the navbar and between entries on the 'new & notes' section. they are not supposed to be there and do not show up in other browsers.

i have tried a fix found on the internet but did not work. can anyone help? thanks

Did you manage to get the problem fixed?

I would recommend that you use a complete doctype declaration. Your page is currently rendered in quirks mode.

Instead of this:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

Use this:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/strict.dtd">
