Ok. I had this same problem a little while, and I fixed it, but now it's back again. I checked all the things you said for me to fix last time.

If you take a look at my page it'll help. Basically, I want to place an image at the top of my page for certain pages. I only have one right now but I'll fix that later, so don't worry about it. I want the navbar and the image to display across the entire container I have. If you're looking at my page with Firefox there are no errors, and that is how I want to page displayed. If you're looking at my page with IE there are several problems.
1. There is padding on the right side of my container when there shouldn't be
2.The navbar isn't displaying across the entire container. (I tried to fix it with the instructions you gave me before, but it didn't work)

If you could give me instructions on how to fix this I would appreciate it. Thanks

Yeah this situation sucks... I believe that after 1 year IE8 wouldn't have this type issues...

This is not IE8's fault, it's your code's fault. The first thing in your document is this:
HTML Code:
<title>KonetchReport | Index</title>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
The first thing MUST be the DOCTYPE declaration, otherwise you are throwing IE into Quirks Mode, which is designed to display like browsers of ancient past.

Exactly.

I also don't see where Konetch said anything about this being an IE8 issue - which is far, far closer to Firefox than it's predecessors. Unfortunately, your site has been blocked by our IT weenies, so I can't get to it to see it.

Yes, but the person posting second said something about IE8 being bad, so I loaded it up in IE8 and it was skewed, so I immediately suspected a DOCTYPE issue.

Well, I wasn't aiming my comment at you, but you were certainly right
