The only way to make is compatible on different browsers and platform is to code it yourself and know your HTML well.

Nothing much I can help but just correct the code that you have.

....as sidez said, and if you use JavaScript, you might want to take care of having the code check which browser the client is using, and writing two versions...depends on what the JS does, of course... it really is a bitch. :(

If he has netscape 4 or lower then you will have to apply the old standards, if however he has 6+ then I would use CSS. Really you should prod him into a browser that reckognises the new standard.

even if he codes with standards, there will still be differences in some of the browsers.

You just need to learn HTML better and read a whole lot on the internet about how certain browsers interpret the HTML. It also comes with experience. You'll learn the quirks as you make more and more sites.

CODE WITH XHTML/CSS (Standards). Doing this will minimize the differences between browsers.
