I have put together a real estate site for the newspaper I am employed at. It is all done in drupal and looks great in FireFox and Safari but I'm getting some weird spacing issues in IE. I can't seem to find out what is causing this bug. Could anyone take a look at the site in FireFox with FireBug enable and give any suggestions.
The site is:

Yeah, I've had the same problems before. I've found that, if you're using panels or complex layouts in general, you need to shave some pixels off the margins and/or reduce the width of your panels/columns somewhat because of IE's different box model, and after some trial and error everything should fit right. I see that your site is only using a 'fix'-css for IE7, but you'll probably need one for IE6 too.
double margin float bug
Your spacing issues are caused by the infamous double-margin float bug in IE. All you have to do is add a
display:inlineanyplace you have a float and you should be fine.Alex Urevick-Ackelsberg
