IE5 problem with my site

Hello everyone
Firstly, if any mods feel that this is a thread just spamming for my site, then please delete/edit as appropriate. I do however, have a genuine query which I hope someone can help with.
I have tried to ensure that my site is compatible with most browsers (despite the use of some dubious techniques which I'm sure the hardcore will disagree with) but have had a problem with IE5 highlighted to me.
I just wondered if anyone using IE5 who has knowledge of these matters could have a look and tell me what the problem is. Any advice on how to fix it would be gratefully received too!

Have tried viewing it with Firefox... the title bar needs centralising like the rest of the content of the page.

Sorry I can't help with the technical aspect of things - but I can't help asking: Babes of TV shopping channels? This is tongue-in-cheek, right?

Re: IE5 problem with my site

I am on IE6 but on 1024/768 resolution.
The links bar needs moving to the center and the two side columns need to be a bit wider, as the text looks untidy being split onto different rows (confusing)

look at http://www.anybrowser.com/ they have links to check for problems.

Ah, there is a reason for that. The program I've used to create that bar only allows an absolute positioning value to be specified (and I don't have the expertise to tinker with it) but I wanted the design of the site to be fluid for different resolutions. If I specified a position to give a central display for one resolution that wouldn't translate to another.
