    Hey,

    I hope someone can help me with this. I'm sure it's something simple I'm just not spotting, but I've been trying to figure it out for a few hours and it's doing my head in!!

    I'm working on the design for this website -

    http://www.wtfsearch.com

    The search box at the top displays fine in firefox. It also displays fine in IE when viewed locally on my machine.

    But when viewed in IE via http://www.wtfsearch.com the border on the right of the search box is missing.

    I cannot figure out why!!

    The HTML code when viewed on my machine and from the website is the same.

    Any ideas???

    Thanks

    I have a similar quirk on my website, everything views fine in Firefox and the css displays perfectly, but for some reason best known to Bill Gates, Internet Explorer butchers my site?... This isn't the solution to your problem, but have a look at how the site displays in Netscape, Opera and the Avant browser, if they seem fine, I'd put it down to a 'quirk' of IE, as IE plays by different rules when displaying borders and tables in HTML to other browsers.

    EDIT: Had a look at your source code from the site and I can't see any problem with it, then again I'm very, very sleepy..

    dublindude - two options ::

    #1 : remove the 'width:100%;' from line 18 (<table style="text-align:center; width:100%; vertical-align:center;"><tbody>)

    or

    #2 : remove the 'style="padding:7px;"' from line 16 (<div style="padding:7px;">)

    Well spotted! My laptop screen isn't sensitive enough for mild colours.

    Cheers.
