Thank you so much cats, it's loading in ie with px values. Why is IE so temperamental?

because it's from MS...
like every good "we want global domination" glutton company they don't follow standards...they are trying to set their own ones which everyone else has to follow. in this case it's the standard how a website has to be displayed.
the safari browser from apple at least as worse as IE, here's what happens when apple doesn't like a font, happened on the website of a customer of mine a few days ago:



it was the "helvetia" font btw, which is a total standard one and not exotic at all.

I was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it. In my opinion it's bad for microsoft and apple. I haven't used IE for my default browser in over 7 years but really who keeps count? It's the coders who should set the standards not the browsers. That font looks horrible! I bet your really angry and frustrated. I am even though I have no errors but because I have to test every browser after site updates.

when IE messes up a site you can sometimes save a lot of work by checking if the site is displayed properly in another IE version (F12->browser mode)...if it does you can force IE to display it in that mode (like telling IE9 to display a site like IE8).

have a look here:

Emulating is pretty sweet, great code in the matter haven't used ie in years no need to upgrade so if users don't have IE upgrades thats fine.
