JS nugget different in IE than FF

Doing this again with the right info :)

http://rackjite.com
On the left top is a js newsbox called AD LIBERALLY in a standard HTML nugget. The script contains an align="left". I enclosed it in another align="left" to no avail.
In FF its fine, in IE it steps to the right TWICE. The internal ad box goes a few right and then the text goes a few right more. Its not so important to the newsbox, but it happens with ads people pay for and they dont like it! :)

Because its a difference tween FF and IE, the suggestion was for me to come here to see if there is a way to fix this.

Thanx

RJ

I had an advertiser, which I hardly ever get, ask for their money back because of this... I need some direction on how to fix this please.
It may not be Serendipity but I have to find out. :)

Your site loads painfully slow. There are a number of errors:
missing a dash between "text" and "align".

Code: Select all

#serendipityRightSideBar {
    text align: left;
}

.serendipityLeftSideBar {
	text align: center;
}
this should be font-style: italic, not font-weight:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_date {
	font-weight: italic;
}
Missing a semi-colon after "baseline":

Code: Select all

div.serendipity_entryFooter {
	text-align: left; 
	vertical-align: baseline
	margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;
font-weight should be expressed in 100's, ie 100, 200, 300, etc, and the font-size of 90% will never apply because the 95% is marked !important:

Code: Select all

td.serendipity_weekDayName {
     	font-size:95%!important;
	font-size:90%;
	font-weight:575;
Missing the closing bracked "}":

Code: Select all

.serendipity_categories_plugin input {
width: 50% !important;
feed.css, color only shows 5 digits, you probably meant #999999:

Code: Select all

div#adspot_701997872.adspot {
    border-color:#99999;
You are loading a stylesheet by the name of feed.css 6 times - I presume this is once for every ad???

Start by fixing the above errors - see where you stand then.

Hey thanx I fixed all those. Was not the problem but I sure appreciate it!

Loading from IE7 takes a lot longer that FF.
There are error messages from IE.
Here is what they look like

Line:1582
Char: 56
Error: Expected 'j'
Code:0
URL:http://rackjite.com/

There are about 20 of these all the same but with different line numbers.
There is one of the following

Line: 1801
Char: 1
Error:Syntax error
Code:0
URL:http://rackjite.com/

It has been this way for months because I dont know what FILE or WHERE to look for the line numbers?

Thanx

Hi rj!

Welcome to the world of Internet explorer fixing. It's simply impossible to guess, which error the IE refers to. :-)

Best regards,
Garvin
