I work on both a Mac and a PC, and I try to make sure my web design looks good on multiple browsers. But a lot of times, something that looks perfect on Firefox or Safari will look totally horrid on IE. Right now I'm having issues with the alignment of the search box and rollover links on the right side of the topnav. The code I've posted puts space between these 2 elements on IE, but on Firefox it's all squished together.

I've tried tables, tables within tables, and then a few more tables in there just for the heck of it. Is there any way to clean up this code to make the alignment look good on multiple browsers? Or do I need to abandon HTML here and go a totally different route? I am barely familiar with CSS.

I checked out the code in IE, and cleaned it up a bit, and moved some things around... Try this:

Code:

<table width="100%" height="100" border="0" rules="none" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" background="http://www.medicalresourceusa.com/images/topnav100.jpg">
<tr>
<td align="left">
<a href="http://store.medicalresourceusa.com/index.html"><img src="http://www.medicalresourceusa.com/images/mrusa_ekg.jpg" border="0"></a>
</td>
   
<td align="right">

   <table align="right" valign="top" height="60">
   <tr align="right" valign="top">
   <td>
   <form method="post" action="http://search.medicalresourceusa.com/cgi-bin/htsearch">
   <input type="hidden" name="config" value="htdig">
   <input type="hidden" name="restrict" value="">
   <input type="hidden" name="exclude" value="">
   <br>
   <input type="text" size="30" name="words" value="">
   <input type="submit" value="Search"><br>
   <a class="nav" href="http://store.medicalresourceusa.com/index.html">Home</a>
   <a class="nav" href="http://store.medicalresourceusa.com/companyinfo.html">Company Info</a>
   <a class="nav" href="http://store.medicalresourceusa.com/email.html">E-mail Us</a>
   <a class="nav" href="http://store.medicalresourceusa.com/info.html">Shipping/Returns/Warranty</a>
   </form>
   </td>
   </tr>
   </table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>


I moved the links to come before the closing </form> tag.

This should not effect the form itself, or come up in its output.
See if that helps.
