Validation Situation :-(

Hey :puzzle:

I’m working on a huge project - HUGE. And I’m having a not so good time with everything at the moment.
I’m redesigning the Penn State University eLion site - http://elion.oas.psu.edu

  • it’s how students reigster for classes and such - how Bursar office workers check accounts, and lots more. In short - a whole bunch of people use this thing all the time.

I needed to have browser compatibility as much as possible. So I fixed the moz-box-sizing: and everything in the CSS so it works wonderfully in Mozilla and IE6, and some other browsers show up looking fine. You can check it out here

However, I don’t have a doctype listed in the html files. Soooooo … that’s kind of an issue. Still, when I do put that doctype in (and I’ve tried a few), there’s an even bigger problem - all my CSS boxes get mangled as in this example if you use IE. It seems to show perfectly in Firefox.

Any suggestions? Help? A link I can check out for more information?

Thanks in advance.
