Why doesn't my website show up correctly in IE?

Factual Questions
1

I cannot for the life of my figure out why my website is all maladjusted when I open it in IE.

I’m not good at webdesign, and I’ve asked at the Wordpress page. The answer was:

I don’t know how to fix that. If anyone can help me, I’d appreciate it greatly.

For the <li> tags, instead of

<li>Some point
<li>Another point

write:

<li>some point</li>
<li>Another point</li>

I need to be much more specific. You see, I looked at my page source with Firefox and saw that there were a bunch of <li> that weren’t closed. The thing is, I don’t know what the corresponding folder is on my folder that I can edit. For instance, the first unclosed <li> is here:

I’ve looked through my wp-content folder and can’t find anything that corresponds with that. Shouldn’t there be a file called “rsswidget”?

No, “rsswidget” is for css. In your stylesheet, there should be an entry for a.rsswidget or somesuch.

This has nothing to do with your problem, however. I only worked on a single WP site, but the offending line is probably in a .php file.

Just close the <li>. There is not something hidden off in some other file that’s the real problem.

And any <br> tags or whatever, change them to <br/>. Change <hr> to <hr/>.

Internet Explorer 6.0 does not recognize the CSS properties right or bottom. When you set right:0 it does nothing. If you float: right it may work, as long as it’s in a container with the other columns. Otherwise, use a value of left that will place it in the same position.

The LI thing they’re telling you is bullshit. It’s not your HTML, it’s your CSS.
