Update: Thank you all. It worked!
http://biz42.inmotionhosting.com/~thefit5/index.html It doesn't work right in IE6, I know, but it doesn't break the page either. The background at the bottom just gets pushed down below the text. If there's a way to fix that, super. If not, we can live with it. Thanks again!
