i am working on my site and want all browsers to display my site exactly the same.
i only use ff but have been using ie and chrome to check how things are displayed. ff and chrome show my page fine, but ie has 2 problems.

.1 ) in i.e the forward button (input button) on the bottom of the page is not displaying where it should (flush with the back button). instead it is displayed a line or 2 down. look at page in ff or chrome and in i.e to understand.

.2) at the top of the page i have an internal search bar. the text "search" is supposed to be indented 4px. it shows correctly in ff and chrome. in i.e it is aligned completely to the left.

any help would be great

I am seeing it only in IE7. And if I'm not mistaking, IE7 requires to have L and R floated elements to be consecutive in the code, and the to-go-in-between element to come after that. So it should be:

HTML:
<input style="float:left">
<input style="float:right">
<span>Copyright stuff</span>

If that doesn't cure, some more remedies are described in this concoction: How to Target IE in CSS (tutorial).
