Hello,

I have developed a website that is specific to IE. The website looks great on my local machine.

I then move it to my production environment. For some reason, the website now looks different when I view it from the production server.

The strange thing is... I am using the same browser. I always believed that HTML was downloaded to the client and then it was up to the browser to render it. Considering I am viewing the webpage using the same browser from my machine... I should have received the same thing. Which lead me to believe that I didn't upload it properly. However, I verified that I did.

Does anyone know what might be causing this?

One problem might be the operating environment on your testing server compared with the server, where your website is.
Did you use something like dreamweaver? Or what is your testingserver? In anyway why do you only want to code something for a browser that is soon to be replaced and might finally catch up with all the other browsers, that are so much better, like Firefox, Opera or OmniWeb.
Coming back to your problem.

In a way the information you are giving are to little to offer any solution.

were you programming in Java? or php? is flash not working? each of these might have different causes, and different reasons, why it does not work. Maybe your life-server cannot cope with a certain setting.

Anyway good luck and dump Internet Explorer, pronto!

Is your html written by server side code? This might be one problem, other could be (depending on your content) the configuration of the server itself, does the programming require something that the server (apache, or php or whatever) needs to have additional settings?

Do you have a link to the site on the web?

If you are going to use IE at least have your code in valid xhtml (if you have not done so already), that will be the first step.
