Site is working fine in mozilla and safari but not in Internet explorer. I am also trying to figure out how to put a picture next to the name on the other side.

Below is the css and the xhtml codes

CSS

/* layoutstyles.css */

/* Background color of box images: #b0c4d0
   Border of box images: #7e97a6 */

/* Eliminate browser default margins and padding */

    padding:0;
}

       can make it easier to avoid pixel slop across browsers when using
       complex elements and styles like navbars and drop-down menus. Remove
       font-size properties from those elements after reducing the font size here.
       See other comments throuhout this style sheet.*/
