what's different in my xampp/IE8 setup?
Hi experts,
I have a test setup on my PC in xampp. I have one page which is showing fine in Firefox and IE8 on the live webhost. On my xampp test server it shows fine with Firefox but not in IE8.
All the various code files I use are identical on xampp and the live server.
Are there known issues with xampp/IE/CSS or should I not worry about it?
The page, as it shows ok, can be seen on the live version here...

The offending version is in the attached jpg...the background image does not continue beneath the left hand images.
Thanks in advance,
Colin

Guys, thanks for your help. I had pretty much given up on this one. I've tripped over compatibility before, so I should have thought of that.
OK, I had compatibility mode ON in my xampp version. So this begs a new question...the page displays wrong with IE8/compatibility on, so it also displays wrong in IE7??? So I need to find a fix for that now?

Do you?
It's the version that's live on the web that matters. Cast a blind eye to the local version of the site I say. The live version is displaying fine :)

v2, it was wrong in live IE7.
Kravimir, many thanks. I also have an issue with the width of the horizontal menu in IE (box model prob I think) but I'll post another question for that.
