Certain pages on my website look wrong in IE, but fine in Firefox.

Take a look at http://thebrothertons.com/node/add using Internet Explorer. None of the background images, or page colors appear, and the layout is totally wrong. But, it looks perfect in Firefox.

Here is an error I'm getting, which I believe may be related:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1 query: SELECT birthday FROM users WHERE uid = in .../includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

I looked in database.mysql.inc, and don't see any of the code mentioned in the error. The only place I can find that code is in birthday_module. So I disabled it, and deleted it from the server. But, that didn't fix the problem.

  1. Check that the 2 browsers have the same HTML output - on first glance, they are. So it's just a case of one browser barfing on incorrect output. Therefore:
  2. Check that you're producing valid HTML & CSS - you're not. I'd particularly check the <html><head /><body /></html><br /> chunk in your footer.

This may be caused by your SQL error - sounds like a rogue module/block (or stuff that's directly in your template). If it's trying to output a whole page, rather than just the code you need, then that's your target.

My computer had spyware or a virus or corrupted windows install. I re-installed, and was able to correctly update the site.
