Ηι,

I have problem with the design of a page as in internet expoler it doesn't display it correct on contrast with the Fozilla.
Please I would appreciate if you could have a look to my code and make any suggestions.

        <table width="637" height="287" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="4">

there are 237 errors in the HTML output. i suggest you add the extension called "HTML Tidy" to firefox to learn more about this.

Problem with padding, thats what im thinking, diffrent browser have diffrent default values for padding, you should set them manually in your html or in php

td {
padding:0px;
}
