CSS

Horizontal Line acting strange in different browsers

I have a horizontal line on a website but trying to make it fluid and responsive. I did manage to make it responsive; however, on my internet explorer my "margin-left" works like I wanted to, but on my google chrome browser it behaves differently or in some other units. What's causing this?

Hard to say what's going wrong without seeing your code. And I'm not sure what you mean by the margin-left not working the way you want.

I don't know if this has anything to do with your situation, but many browsers automatically have a left margin with a value greater than 0. In order to get rid of that, I always put in the following code at the top of my CSS.

html {
     margin-left: 0px;
}

But again, I don't know if that will solve your problem.
