My site is running on the spreadfirefox theme and so far the browser view is excellent if viewing from firefox. However, when viewing the homepage in IE the template breaks considerably. The url of the homepage is http://chibabeat.com/test_site. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Look for .main-content table in the style.css and add this line: float: left;

please confirm if this is solving your problem

Actually I think this was an issue with the panels module I was using for the frontpage. I just needed to change the widths from 100% to 98% and it solved the problem.

Problem solved! It was the block inside the main content area that was pushing and creating the white space. Lots of thanks for the help.

Hey guys, thanks for the tip on the Float: Left; I did that and it solved my problem as well!

Cheers,

None of those worked for me, aside from the short comment here on th width for the main content.
You'll need to add this to your style.css in .main-content {} :

  width: 97%; /* needed for IE */

So it would endup looking like :

.main-content {
  width: 97%; /* needed for IE */
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  line-height: 1.3; /* value other than 'normal' needed for WinIE */
}

Can fiLi's fix in #8 be committed? I downloaded 5.x-1.0 and this was still an issue.

I'd suggest making it 99% instead of 97%, to maintain the width of .main-content as closely as possible.
