Cheryl, Steven, et al., Could you take a look at my link again:
http://www.stewartandcompany.net/clients/calebco/layout.php Problem 1: I followed your suggestions to validate and give the body the border, but the border still will not run all the way down the page like I want. As you can see, it stops after 150px or so. Problem 2: I want the link to be bold whenever the mouse is over the div. It works with Firefox but not with IE. The instructions to be bold on the mouseover is at div.menuon. Thanks so much for your help!

Put the border on your body tag instead of on the column divs. With problem 2 I see: a.menu:hover { color: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-decoration: none; } Which you have set to inherit from: A:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #CB4D1A; font-size: inherit; font-weight: normal; } I don't know why Mozilla would be making the link bold on your machine. It doesn't on mine. All that changes on mouseover is the color. BTW, you don't need to specify "inherit" that is the default value unless you change it in the code. You could simplify your css a lot since you are not changing any of the values for the menu. Cheryl D.

Your help is appreciated! http://stewartandcompany.net/clients/calebco/layout.php Problem 1: A black border is supposed to extend from top to bottom on either side of the page. It only goes part way. I read a hack where you make the body height 100% and the div height 100% to fix it, but that doesn't work. Problem 2: I have a discrepancy between Mozilla and IE (surprise, surprise) at the menu. If you look at it with Firefox, the menu text will be bold on the mouseover. In IE it's not bold or even the same color. As a good friend says, "what in the wally?" ____ .
