Hey guys long time no see, I was macking with some XHTML and ran into some problem in IE, this site needs to be readable for everybody, and then i thought of you wise guys inhere

..

http://home.no/dezza/9kilo.dk/

Here is the site, try taking a look in IE, margin: auto; won't work in IE. And there ain't no margin top neither?

What do i need to do to make this site look identical in IE? I've tried searching for margin: auto; and what I found was to do a text-align: center; and then make the <p> tag text-align: left; again, but isn't there a more smart way to do this or? IE seems weird!

I've heard of some DOCTYPE mod for IE which makes IE follow the laws of true XHTML like firefox, is that right?

Thanks in advance guys ..
