I have noticed an issue with several podcast's using wordpress in which the items (graphics, etc.) on the right hand modules are pushed all the way to the bottom when viewing with IE but it's fine in Firefox. This happens once they have several postings that stuff on the side modules starts getting pushed to the bottom so they are no longer visible unless the viewer scrolls to the bottom. And that has very important info like comment line phone number, email address, ads, etc.

I know firefox is the better browser and all but the fact is that 70-90% of regular surfers use IE so I don't want this happen to my site. Any ideas on the coding to prevent this happening so the site loads the same on both browsers? I'll also check the wordpress forum for an answer. Thanks. Alan

The only time this happened to me, my page also failed several important checks at the validator at http://validator.w3.org

It wasn't wordpress, in other words, it was the wordpresser (aka me) :D
