I conceded that - when I posted my initial question, I ~did~ state there were validation errors. But if you'd looked at all 12 of them, every one of them was related to the navigation menu, which was exactly the reason I was posting here. I did not know ~what~ was wrong, what was causing the validation issues. I was asking for help. Paul's response about the improper syntax was the issue (though, unfortunately, fixing that caused the menu to die in Firefox). > > Regarding your question about making the page too small for you to read, I > > am open to any teaching you wish to offer.

Again, I'm here to learn. And I ~thought~ that was the right way to do it. I do the best I can learning, I'm trying very hard to learn the standards and produce the best sites that I can. Of course I know that you can't believe everything you read on the internet, but I'd seen more than a few tutorials that showed how to size fonts this way. I will go back and read more about it and learn the right way. I'm sorry if my posting was rather a nuisance - I have found this list to be very informative and appreciate any help that I can get.
