These are all add-on search facilities that you could use. I think they all offer a free version with ads, or a paid for version without: http://www.freefind.com/ http://www.fusionbot.com/ http://www.google.com/sitesearch/ http://www.picosearch.com/ http://www.wrensoft.com/ HTH

It's because as inline objects (by default) images sit on the text baseline and leave a space underneath for the text character's descenders.

Looks identical to me in IE8, Firefox3 and Opera9.64 on WinXP. And no refresh issues. You're running the page in quirks mode (no doctype). You should really add a valid doctype to line 1 of the html.

There are plenty of techniques for rounded corners - take your pick: http://www.cssjuice.com/25-rounded-corners...iques-with-css/

I've used iframes in Opera with no problems. What problems are you experiencing? URL?

Validate your code: http://validator.w3.org/ Follow the tutorials: http://www.w3schools.com/ http://www.htmldog.com/

Here's another one that includes a tutorial: http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/navi..._hide/index.htm It's a free and basic version of the more advanced PVII DW extension based PMM menu system.

Set the margin of the <ul> inside your nav bar to 0: #nav ul { margin: 0; }

You're pretty much there. If you float an object it removes it from the natural flow of the document. If you float to the right the text will flow around that object to the left. If you float it left, text flows round it to the right. What you can't do is float center and have the text flow around both sides.

Right, but you're not expecting any of the main content to appear where the float object margin is, are you?

margin-left: 280px; (half the width of the container minus half the width of the button div) should do it. Or try margin: 0 auto; and drop the float.

Yes, CushyCMS will allow you to edit anywhere on your site inside any container that has class="cushycms". The easiest way would be to place all of the content you wanted to make editable inside a single div like this: <div class="cushycms"> your content here </div>

Try fixing your validation errors and see if it works then: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&am...-newbg-test.htm

Is the site server using Apache? If it's not you won't be able to use .htaccess. You could either get the site transferred to a Unix/Apache server or find a different method that works on IIS or whatever server you are actually on. Other redirect methods are listed here: http://www.webconfs.com/how-to-redirect-a-webpage.php

It looks like all the negative top margins are playing havoc with the layout in Firefox. Why are they there?

FloatBox is another one that will do what you want: http://randomous.com/floatbox/home Now only free for personal sites, otherwise $20 for single site commercial license - worth it IMHO.

There are actually five states for 'a'. You forgot a:focus{ color: #e77; } It's for the benefit of those navigating a page by use of the tab key and usually (but not necessarily) goes after the other four.

#wrapper { margin: 0 auto; }

Maybe this would work for you: http://www.projectseven.com/tutorials/css/...lumns/index.htm

The header's looking good, but there's still a problem in the content section and the footer in IE. Both have similar causes to the header problem, so it shouldn't be too hard for you to track them down. Google 'Firebug' - it's an add-on for Firefox that lets you view/edit the code on any page as you're viewing it. It also displays the CSS inheritance. There's a similar extension for IE, but not as good - search for 'IE Developer Toolbar'. You might also look at the 'Web Developer' add-on for Firefox. All useful tools to check out why things aren't how you expected them to be.

I'd say it's better to start with CSS layouts. It's probably a steeper learning curve but the benefits far outweigh any problems you'll have at the beginning. A liquid/fluid layout will stretch or shrink widthways to fill whatever screen size/resolution it's viewed on (preferably with min and max limits as mentioned above). A fixed width layout is exactly that. Here's one way to construct a CSS based 2 column liquid and 3 column liquid layout. These might be useful too: PVII Equal Columns A List Apart: Holy Grail

.cont_700_top is inheriting a font-size of 18px which is causing part of the problem, but you can get around this by specifying height:10px; And you also have some padding on the div. Try changing it to padding:0; There is also a break in the maini body of the page which you can lose by making the image sushi-san.jpg display:block;

Hi all! I've been working as a freelance website designer for almost 13 years and before that as a photographer and audio visual producer. I thought it was time to get out and meet some people
