I'm currently building up my site, still in early stages but it turns out my sub menu only shows up on my laptop and computer. My sister's laptop and friends can't see it. Wondering if something's wrong: www.jerrymlow.com

the code for that section (the portfolio page):

code:
<div id="content"><img src="Site/Images/content-top.gif"><table width="869"  border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="top"><td width="58" style="background-image: url('Site/Images/cr-left.gif') ; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position:bottom;"><img src="Site/Images/content-left-piece.gif" width="58" height="45"></td>
		<td><table width="811"  border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="top"><td width="277" style="background-image: url('Site/Images/cr-right.gif'); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: bottom;"><img src="Site/Images/left-top.gif" width="277" height="66">
					<font color="#09091c"><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript" SRC="_counter.php?page=portfolio"><!--//--></SCRIPT></font><br />
					<div style="width:227; padding:25px;">

				<!--- LEFT LEFT LEFT ---->

					</td><td width="534" style="padding-left:15px; padding-right: 15px; padding-bottom:30px;"><br>

*yikes* Inline style, tables, br, ... what seems to be JS generated content.

Going the standard and semantic way certainly won't hurt your site. Beside, what browser do you and your sister use ?

Here comes a dump of the Opera 9.20's Error Console after loading the portfolio on your site:

As you can see there's many errors. From simple typo, wrong values, up to security violation!

code:
background-position: top-right;


should be:

code:
background-position: top right;

See the CSS2 spec

code:
#menu    { wdith: 870px; height: 32px; }


should be:

code:
#menu    { width: 870px; height: 32px; }

Obvious typo.

code:
font-weight: 1000;


should be:

code:
font-weight: 900;

See the CSS2 spec

code:
width:247; padding:15px;


should be:

code:
width:247px; padding:15px;

See the CSS2 spec. Unless you use percentage, you MUST specify a unit.

As for the security violation, it's probably some attempt at XSS ( Cross Site Scripting )

I would like to recommend using firebug extension for Firefox to debug issues like this.

I would like to second what leiken said and further recommend developing and designing in FireFox with firebug and then testing/correcting in IE when you're done. It's easier to develop on a standards-compliant browser and then fix IE problems than it is to go the other way around. IE is a total piece of garbage with regard to standard compliance as it stands today. I have done some testing on IE8 which does address some issues and it's a tantalizing prospect for the future, however it is clearly demonstrating some rendering issues that other standard compliant browsers are NOT having, so only time will tell if that's going to work out either.

Regards,
