I created my website, previewed it and then uploaded it to my server. It looks fine in Safari but everything displays backwards in Internet Explorer (it's a total mirror image). Can anyone tell me why and how I can fix it?

    thanks everyone. I got it sorted. It was the filter flipH. I have no clue how it got there. I'm new to the program and was following tutorials. Ether gremlins. So problem solved.

    thanks,

    ????????


    If that's really a font, how many people do you think are going to see it on your page?

    I think it's a cunning way to promote the business.

    "????????"

    "i do. that's how i was able to steal your idea!"

    "I kinda like it that way."

    "My god    —    it really does!"

    SO NOT helpful!!! thanks for nothing! why bother writing anything if you're not here to help? Yes, I put my question in the wrong forum (despite following what was set out in the forums directory) but I honestly needed help. won't be coming here anymore. Out of several replies only ONE person was kind enough to offer help.

    so thanks for nothing

    You have "filter: FlipH" in the style for the #container div, so it's not surprising the content shows backwards in IE. Safari

    presumably doesn't understand MS DHTML:

    Wouldn't life have been simpler for Leonardo da Vinci if he'd been able to apply a FlipH filter to all his writing?

    Neither does FireFox or Seamonkey.

    I the only thing I see out of the oridinary is one image link is broken.
