Site won't display in IE, need help BAD...

Question

Heya,
My website
http://www.firetree.us is not
displaying at all in IE7 (possibly IE6 too) but unfortunately I
don't have a machine I can test it in. I'm really in need of some
help because it works perfectly in Safari, FF PC & Mac but IE
doesn't displaying anything at all. I really need some support on
this one, thanks guys.

Your usage is not XHTML vs HTML - it's just bad code.
<script> is always
paired with </script>. XHTML doesn't affect such tags.
It's only the self
closing tags that are affected by XHTML - <hr />,
<br />, etc.

That's why.

Seems like a habit that is out of date to me!
