I believe it would help your cause greatly if you would write error-free
markup to start. You also want to use a DOCTYPE that does not throw IE
(and other browsers) into quirks mode. Use:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
...instead of your partial Transitional doctype.
See your errors here:
<http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.curepity.org%2Fdefault.cfm%2FPID%3D1.1.8>
"Failed validation, 41 Errors"
You are also mixing HTML 4.0, HTML 4.01, and XHTML, never a good start.
