I recently added a Glow Mod To my site

theres a certain Mod U can do to fix it so glow works
and I did it (info copied below)
################################################## ############
## MOD Title: Internet Explorer Glow/Shadow Fix
## MOD Author: Thoul <
thoul@phpbbsmith.com > ( Jeremy Rogers )
phpBB Smith
##
## Installation Level: Intermediate
## Installation Time: 2 Minutes
## Files To Edit:
## templates/XXXX/overall_header.tpl
## Included Files: N/A
## License: contrib/license.txt GNU General Public License v2
################################################## ############
## Author Notes:
##
## On some templates, the glow and shadow effects may not work in Internet
## Explorer browsers. If you encounter such behavior, it may be due to the
## Doctype set in the template's overall_header.tpl. This fix will change
## or remove the Doctype in order to enable the glow and shadow.
##
## Be careful in changing or removing the Doctype. The Doctype tells browsers
## how they should read the code of your site. Altering may cause display
## errors. You should thoroughly test the display of your site after altering
## the Doctype.

# Making this replacement may result in odd behavior elsewhere in the forum.

now I did that and glow works only problem is now my banner
at the top of my site is like for lack of a better word almost "repeating"
itself on the left and the right side I dont know how to fix it
I backed up all my files and I could over write the file and
it would look normal BUT i like the glow text mod
I know this is prolly very easy for some...
The only file I edited was "overall_header.tpl"
and the only thing I did was swap out the top line with
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
and the glow works but my banner is ****ed up and
i dont know how to fix it...
go to my site U can see what I mean
Rapmusic.in - Hip Hop Shenanigans - Where Geeks Collide. :: Index
the banner is like repeating at the ends
it wasnt doing that before - how do I fix it?
heres the code from my overall_header.tpl
