I'm afraid this was not a straightforward fix. :-)

Firstly you had missed the closing /> for an <img src="............... in your 
HTML, so it wouldn't validate. You also had several <div>s in the HTML, that 
weren't defined in your stylesheet.

I also believe that you spelled "Phil" incorrectly. If I'm wrong, I'm sure you 
can put the extra "l" back.

The problems with your stylesheet were various and TBQH I can't remember every 
change I made. Basically, you had several overlapping <div>s which interfered 
with each other and your over-all "wrapper" wasn't wide enough. Also, your 
"page" wasn't wide enough to accommodate your logo image, without overflowing.

I did a 'quick fix' for IE6, but that interacted with other definitions and 
screwed up Firefox, so I have done some 'slow' fixes and it now all works in 
IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari and your HTML validates.

To save cluttering up this List with a couple of pages of CSS and HTML, I've 
uploaded the altered files onto one of my sites, so you can retrieve them. 
Either use them as they are, or if you're a real masochist, compare them to 
your originals. <grin>

The files can be found at:
<www.webbwize.co.uk/Test_Area/Minstrels_Rest/index.html>
and
<www.webbwize.co.uk/Test_Area/Minstrels_Rest/css/master.css>

so you should be able to drop them back into your original locations.

BTW, Minstrels Rest looks like a decent place to stay. If I'm in Hastings and 
need a room, I'll consider it. :-)

  Subject: [css-d] IE6 problem - something overflows the image


  Hi, I'm having a problem with an image and a top border of my
  navigation on the left sidebar, on IE6 something covers them with the
  background, and I have no idea why and what element it is, since it
  displays right on FF, IE7, Opera, Safari...

  The websites address is: http://www.sunlust.net/test5

  Any ideas?

  Regards,
