Question

I started at this company about a month ago and I’ve been trying to clean up their website. It’s a real mess. My boss uses IE but I was using Chrome, just kind of running and gunning. The headline underneath the jQuery slider that reads: “World-Class Mechanical Engineers & Contractors – in Central PA” goes to the far left hand side of the <td>, but the other h1 doesn’t. I want the site to render the same in Chrome as it does in IE, but the way that it looks in Chrome is what I want. In Chrome, the h1 pulls in 40px to the right, to indent it out. What am I missing, here?

Answer 1

You have invalid markup. Notice how on the second line of the snippet below has a table element with the h1 as a child.

    <td height="50" colspan="2" valign="bottom"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

Also if you open developer tools in IE (F12), you will notice that it freaks out in that area (for me it shows a <> child, which is impossible)
