Kristen - I don't know about anyone else but the reason that I have not addressed this is that there seem to be a lot of problems and there isn't one reason why it isn't working right. It's relatively easy to help when you can look at something and change a rule here and there to fix a problem. However, if I were to try to fix the problems in this layout I'd probably start from scratch and simplify both the CSS and the markup and to do that would take more time than I am willing to give right now. I hope you don't take this the wrong way! I'm just aware that you have posted this twice and not gotten much response so I thought it might be worth letting you know why I haven't responded. My general advice would be to simplify it as much as you can. You don't need much of the markup and much of the absolute positioning. For elements that are set to display block and aren't floated or positioned absolutely you don't need to set width to 100%. You need to either use a different image format or use a png hack to make IE6 recognise the transparency. > > The PHP page template is not directly accessible from the site, so > I've archived a copy here: > http://purplelagoon.org/Stuff/template.zip The PHP doesn't matter for CSS. All that matters is the final output of the PHP.
