Why are you using tables for layout. Tables are well known for creating problems for layout.

I suggest that you investigate using XHTML/CSS (with CSS positioning).

And make sure you have a doctype declared.

EDIT: He has some code at http://www.afcommunity.com/AF3/ (hint my doctype comment)

I got it to kind of work, and Im using tables becuase Im just creating basic XHTML pages I dont want to get into using layouts for each part of the site becuase its a fairly small site with only a few pages.

The only problem I have is that now in IE one of the strokes on the header ( on the right side ) will not display, looks fine in firefox though.

When I said use CSS positioning for layout I mean use it for the whole sites layout.

I am sure that the problems your having could be solved with CSS positioning.

First, MrSlick, that is one of the nicest designs I've seen around in a while. Really, really well done for that.

As kjwebb was saying, though, try to err away from tables when you're doing your layouts - CSS is much more extensible and device-friendly. If you need help with making your design work using XHTML and CSS, by all means ask away :)
