I've done a website on Macromedia Dreamweaver and i don't understand much of it..
it works fine on Firefox, but on Internet Explorer, the website doesn't "have the same face".. The menu, text and the images aren't aligned were they should be...

On browser compatibility it says that it founds 2 erros in external CSS Files:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/layout.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/html.css">

and 2 Doubled Float Margin Bug (on top, and on bottom)

Here's the url, to you see... hope u can help me!

 
First put a full and correct doctype on the page, Then put the appropriate character encoding statement on. Then run a validator on the page and fix the validation errors.

That will fix most of the positional differences. Come back with any remaining problems and we will be glad to help you with them.

You should have a reasonable understanding of HTML and CSS before you start using automated tools like DW so you can correct the worst of the errors that it can produce. Try and for both to get you started. Either will explain about doctypes and character encoding in simple terms
