I have a Drupal site tha I am playing with but on FF it works and looks good
but on IE the blocks on the right show on the bottom.

What is the solution, give a bigger size to the width of your theme?

Thanks,

Rotsen :-)

IE Developer Toolbar

I'd suggest downloading & installing the IE developer toolbar (they have it for 6&7 - I haven't tried it on 8 yet). You can dynamically change the css styles (float, width, padding, etc) to help determine what's pushing the block down. Here's the link to the IE dev toolbar:

It's as close as you're going to get to FireBug on IE, as far as I know.

HTH!

I found out that the problem

I found out that the problem is that the pages content does no stay within the parameters of the boxes or areas of the themes.
If you add a picture that is bigger than the area, the picture is not kept within the limits of the area.
If I have a theme that I made 800 pixels and I decided that I want to have a left and a right side at 150 pixels giving me
a center area of 500. If I add anything to the center area that is bigger than 500pixels, instead of containing the info
within its area the center area is expanded and that makes the right side move down to the bottom because it does not fit
I wish there was a FIX command for areas. The theme does hazve a ' fix width' but it is not followed on the situation I described above

Thanks to all for your help

You need to constrain your

You need to constrain your content to the width of the area. Otherwise all bets are off in all browsers. For images use the Imagecache module.
