Sorry. I thought I saw errors in the menu markup. Re-visiting the page I no longer see those. To center an element using "auto" left/right margins, the element must have a width - either specified or intrinsic (as in the case of a "shrink-to-fit" property like an inline-block). Unordered lists have top and bottom margins, and either left margin or padding (depending on the browser). Setting margin-top to zero on your menu ULs will rid you of the band of gray across the top. Setting the padding-left and margin-left will give you better cross-browser control. > Also, I was turning off css markup in Firebug, and if it didn't > change anything in the layout, I was removing it, but I don't know if > that was good approach ;) Somewhat. But note my comment about some browsers using margin-left and others using padding-left on UL ss an example of why this is not foolproof. > Sorry for newbie questions, it's the first time that I'm coding > something.

More apologies here. I had forgotten that Wordpress generates XHTML code. Please ignore my suggestion. > Maybe there is something wrong with it, as the website doesn't > display Polish letters... My browsers report that you are using UTF-8. Sadly, many client-side editors do not support UTF-8 very well. Dreamweaver prior to CS3 did not, for example. Also, FTP clients may need to be set to transmit code as "binary". Otherwise you should be able to insert characters from almost any language directly into the code. You don't even need entities for copyright and em-dash characters! A clue that something in the editing/ upload/ storage cycle is converting UTF-8 to a Latin-based encoding is when your accented characters display as 2-4 strange symbols. > but I didn't change anything - it came with WP Framework theme. > Well, some things seem to be missing from the framework. In addition to the resetting of margins and padding, the background-color has not been set. Mind you, I like the light tan background I see this end... :) Hope I have not confused you too much.
