I checked it for you just now on my computer with FF3 and IE7 and IE6 just in case it was a problem on with your IE browser, I had the exact same problem that is bizarre I never seen that before. I found this link for you it's a bit out of date but it suggests the problem is the order of the elements in the style sheet

I have looked at your site in IE 7 and FF 3.
In IE 7 nothing appears.
In FF your site does not display as you would like.(Your Logo next to the star is cut short)

To get on the right track go to your styles where you have the conditional statements. In each case you are closing the style tag before the conditional statement. Put the closing style tag after the closing the closing conditional tag.

When you have done this I would suggest you validate your HTML at W3c here: http://validator.w3.org/

Hope this helps.

It looks to me that you have a <style> tag that is unclosed. IE is probably interpreting this to mean that the entire document is filled with CSS styles.

Place a closing </style> tag right before the line reading:
HTML Code:
<!--[if IE 5]>
***EDIT***
Oops, it looks like aldor already came to the same conclusions... Will try to read the comments more closely...

Woohoo! You all are a friggin' lifesaver. I don't know what I'd do if I had to try and figure this stuff out on my own.

The problem is solved. I have not uploaded the new files yet if you check right away. Will do that in just a few.

Once again, every question I've posted here has gotten an immediate response and an answer. You are all doing a great service here for people like me :-)
