JCarousel not rendering in Internet Explorer 8 - html

Got a big problem with JCarousel in Internet Explorer 8.
It works in all other browsers I've tested on. I'm hesitant to put a link to the site as I god nailed by someone here for trying to get hits - so I'll describe the problem.
In IE all the images are loading one underneath the other rather than in the CSS box.
Anyone had this problem and know how to solve it?

It has to do with the DOCTYPE. In IE and FF the page loads in Quirks mode. Open FF, Tools and Page Info, it shows the details. You are missing the DTD in your DOCTYPE.

My page appears differently in IE 10 than in Chrome or Firefox

I am fairly new to HTML5 so please bear with me. I have designed a site for someone and when I view it in Firefox or Chrome, all is well, but when I view it in Internet Explorer 10, the nav menu and the picture in the header are moved downward. I have checked the site at http://validator.w3.org/ and it gave me some errors like alt is missing and some other minor things which I believe are irrelevant to what is causing this problem. Is there a way for me to override this with some type of Javascript code or is there some way of just making an IE 10 friendly version of the page in which someone who puts in the url of the page will be redirected to the IE version of the page?
Here is the url of the site: daxxomatic.com
Welcome to web programming and comparability issues. Internet explorer is the largest used web browser and the most horrific browser for web programmers.
You have to live with it and do one of the hacks for dealing with the problem. I would suggest that you follow web standards and check out www.caniuse.com to see if what you are doing can work on IE or Firefox or whatever.
Lastly, test your code in different browsers as you develop a project. That way you deal with small chunks of problems than a big one at the end.

Text flow out of divs in chrome, but not on all chrome users?

I got a really strange problem, and after so much tries and research I can't get out of it.
I have a website, but SOME (just 5% of visitors) people with the SAME version of chrome, see the text flowing out of divs and text overlapping. It's very strange because I tested the website on all chrome browsers using browser testers, without any problem. And in internet explorer or firefox this problem never happens...
A page is located here
And here are some screenshots of what SOME people see (maybe you won't see this in chrome)

Maybe it is because of the font face I am using? Or maybe some bad coded CSS?
Please help me out of this!
Thanks a lot!
I see you use .svg font. Recently I was hunting some Chrome font rendering bugs and saw this:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=95102
This seem very similar to issues you are having. You could try to serve some other font type to Chrome and if this would fix that.
If you don't want or can't serve some other font type to Chrome, the only thing you can do is wait until Chrome version 24 is out to all users which should be soon (I can't find any announcement)
I tested it in
Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m
Chrome 26.0.1371.0 canary
Chromium 25.0.1334.0 (169326)
# Windows 7 x64 and your page seems fine for me.

IE9 rendering issue

I've been trying to figure this issue out for about an hour now. I've asked some friends but they didn't have much luck either.
The problem is with this site: http://tomdwyerdesign.com/
Load it in Chrome and it's fine. Load it in IE10 and it's fine... load it in IE9 and it's not.
It loses a good portion of its css. I've used the html5shiv trick and still it refuses to work.
Another website: http://tomdwyerdesign.com/new
this loads fine and shares almost an identical header.
Anyone know why IE9 won't render this correctly?
IE is going into quirks mode on your new site. Checking with W3 Validator shows a warning that is likely your problem: IE will go into quirks mode if you have comments before your doctype.
Try moving your doctype before the comments, and see if that helps.

HTML page is appearing different in Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer

Hey guys, i have recently created a HTML page but it is appearing differently in Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. I have uploaded the page on ripway. Here is the URL http://h1.ripway.com/gurusmith/My%20site/Index/index.html
Please watch the page in both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox and after watching you will find that the page is appearing fine in Internet Explorer but not in Mozilla Firefox. Can anyone tell where i have made the problems. If anyone can edit the source code and post the correct source code here which works fine in both the browsers then i will be really thankful to you.
Sorry, i can't post the source code and the outputs due to restrictions but i have given the link above for the page. So please do visit it and help me.
Your page is not even remotely valid HTML. For one thing, you have two body elements.
Check out W3C Validation of your page for more problems.
If a browser gets invalid HTML it makes its best guess at what the DOM should be (as opposed to a deterministic interpretation). Since browsers are designed by independent teams, these interpretations will differ. Then, when it comes to applying CSS, variations are bond to occur.
Get your HTML in order and then see what happens.
Older versions of IE are known to display pages slightly differently than most "modern" browsers. A quick Google search turned up the following lists of common differences:

Webpage loading in internet explorer problem?

Using CSS Style Sheet, HTML, XML
When i run my website, my page was properly displaying in the firefox, but the page was not properly displaying in the internet explorer.
Most of the people using only the internet explorer, but why my web page is not properly loading in the internet explorer.
I have to change the setting of internet explorer?
How to solve this problem.
As others have said, without a link to your site it's hard to tell exactly what the problem is, but if it's a CSS problem in IE6 you could try using the IE7-js library, which will make IE6 fairly standards compliant. Also, you may want to look at this resource for general help with CSS hacking in IE.
