And all I have to say about that is, if you're using IE you need to wake up, and only then can you come and browse the site. Plus I learned that if people would just maximize their browses problem would be solved. Maybe not the case here, but I just want to lash out against browser zombies.

Not all the features of the W3C are implemented in the various browsers, most notably IE, even though it is so widely used. I think Opera has the most support for such features, followed by Mozilla. The reason why the older template works is that it uses the earlier CSS version or pure HTML. To reach a wider audience, I guess you're stuck with being "retrograde", unfortunately. I won't advise adding complications like scripting either.

Don't lose any sleep over this, it looks fine on Firefox and Safari. Agreed–anyone who is still using IE at this point deserves to be punished.
