My apologies

I use Firefox at home, and the hockey playoff table in the upper right hand corner of the page looks great. This morning I looked at it using IE, and it's a mess. The bad news is that I don't have a lot of time at the moment to muck about with it. The good news is that all of my legally blind visitors will be able to keep up with the scores.

I've got IE up here at work, Ted, and it looks fine. And thanks, now I don't need to make another stop at nhl.com.
Because I love you, I won't root for the Sharks. ;-)

While not blind I am getting closer and will take all the help I can get.
However since I use Firefox also it doesn't work for me.

It looks fine for me in Firefox and IE, in IE the font is pretty big, but IE sucks so that's going to be a given.

I'm in Firefox and the thing is friggin' huuuuuuge. I don't mind.

In my Firefox it's roughly the same size as the banner. In IE it's monstrously huge.

Oh well, it is what it is.

Looks fine on my IE too, Ted, but where are the Leafs? Oh, now I remember. A team has to really suck if they can't even advance to the mega-play-offs and the Leafs define suckitude.

Sorry, I sort of have to root for Ottawa until they self-destruct. That city is nominally in Ontario ... but my main pleasure will be to root for any team playing the Canadiennes (it's a Toronto thing.)

It looks fine in both IE and FF for me. You know how to change text sizes in IE, right? (View --> text size --> medium/small/smaller etc.) Hope that's not insultingly basic; maybe I'm missing something here. Trying to be helpful. :-)

:D No insult taken. I'm not sure what the issue is. The table is about the same size as the banner in FF and IE here at home. At work we have IE only, and the text is huge. It's not a matter of the view size medium/small... because everything else on the page displays correctly (I tested that). It has something to do with how it's treating the headers and the css.

Short diagnosis: IE is evil.
