    Hi Ken,

    In your HTML code remove or correct the red codes and I think you will be OK,
    [code]
    <HTML><head><title>home2</title>
    <style type="text/css">
    body, p {font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px}
    </style></head>
    <body><html>
    <head>
    [/code]

    Hope that Helps,
    Have a Great Day!
    Michael

    Now that I've looked at the code again....It's really UGLY...lol, Sorry

    Why is there 2 <html> and 2 <head> tags?

    What did you use to create this?

      Thanks Michael so much... I tried that but no luck. I'm using my buddy James Grandstaff's replicated script.

      It's so fun when it works in others but not in IE! :-)

        I've seen it to where the software that one might be using to create/edit a site will actually create it to not show up right in IE8...

        What are you using to create the site?

        I had problems with my blogs not showing up in IE8 but it was because of the software I was using to build them...when I stopped using it...the blogs all started working right...

        Just a thought.

    You have a doctype specified that hasn't been around since 1998. Try this one instead:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

    Other than that, everything looks like it should display as a table document.

    I always run my code through the W3.org validator. You can find it at http://validator.w3.org/. You do not have to fix all the issues, but it is better if you do, but take the time to understand them and you will learn aspects of (X)HTML that you did not know existed.

    At the moment you have 52 errors and 6 warnings reported! You will probably find that many of the errors result from the same mis-codings.

    If it validates, there is a good chance that all modern browsers, with the exception of IE, will display it properly. Making it display properly in IE8 is much easier than for previous versions.

    Hope this helps,

    Clive
