Shoe wins and IE loses

Even with today’s stats Shoemoney beat John Chow.
If you are watching my site with Internet Explorer you’ll see some weird position for the posts. I am sorry but I have no idea why it happens. I know that the chart’s html code must be all on the same line to avoid problems (due to wordpress), but I have no idea why the posts on IE are down there (or here if you read it with IE :-) ). I hate when the two browsers render the pages differently. I used to worry a lot about the behaviour on IE, but lately I’ve noticed that most of my readers use Firefox so I don’t mind that much anymore.
I am not blaming IE to behave wrongly; I think it’s Firefox that is behaving wrongly probably. I noticed a lot of times that Internet Explorer is simply more strict on the way it renders HTML. It means that when you make mistakes on HTML, IE shows the code wrongly because you’ve made a mistake. Firefox instead try to understand what you meant and it shows the code “correctly”. On this case IE is the right one; it’s better to show you the mistake rather than guessing what you meant.
Anyway it’s not always like that. Most of the times is IE that guess in the wrong way.
