My web page is being pushed maybe 5px to the right automatically when viewed in IE. In Firefox it does not give me that problem. I had one float but I entered the fix for that, display: inline;

Well, first of all, the page has a couple of validation errors. Fix them using this:

Did not work it just shortened the right side.
 
Check your css. You apply padding and margin 0 to no element. That seems to be a mistake or a wrong way of looking at things. Your gap is there because of the default gutter on the body element. In FF it is suppressed, while in IE it exists. I suggest you add
Code:
body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
to your stylesheet. That should clear up all the problems.
 
Thank you that worked, I had put the code as it was because I saw somewhere years ago say that and I have pretty much just always left it up there hoping it was working, guess the person just wrote it down wrong a long time ago. Thx again.
