I have no idea what you mean when disabling css and the boxes on main page, they are all background images in the stylesheet so when I disable styles they dont show... Feedback is appreciated thanks! This one was a big job and continuing but very close to releasable..

Re: [WSG] Horizontal Menu- Site Check
I noticed just after I posted that it wasn't the menu as front page was fine. Am checking widths Overflow hidden fixed, but that isn't really a fix. Thanks!!

The issue is not with your menu!! It looks to me like your 3rd column is pushing the main container out beyond it's intended width of 770px. Good luck!!

Re: [WSG] Horizontal Menu- Site Check Fixed
Now I know why I never write in. Ten minutes after sending this I found the problem,,, rather fixed it. Overflow hidden on the wrapper did the trick, something was forcing the site wider. Spent hours not being able to fix it, write to the list and find it in ten minutes. Conclusion? Looks like the way to fix the unsolvable is to write to the group, even if no body answers the answer comes anyways lol Bruce - Original Message - From: Bruce To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Sent: Thursday, March 09, 2006 3:10 AM Subject: [WSG] Horizontal Menu- Site Check Hi all, I have a large site launch in a few days at a big show in Germany.
