What I see is the following (Windows XP): Home Page (IE 6, FF .8): 1. ccbc logo is somewhere in the middle and not placed to the right (which is what I assume you want) 2. content scrollbar hidden under header Other pages (IE 6): 1. content scrollbar hidden under header Other pages (FF .8): 1. content scrollbar appears over header 2. ccbc logo scrolls off page when scrollbar is used I did not see any problems with the sidebar when resizing the page in either IE 6 or FF .8. To fix the scroll bar problems, since header and sidebar are position:fixed, why not set the content div as position:fixed as well? I think this could have the scrollbar fully visible under the header (if this is what you want...). To fix the disappearing ccbc logo, I notice that on the other pages (not home page), the ccbc logo is [b]not[/b] in the header div but rather the content div... To fix the misplaced ccbc logo on the homepage, I'd suggest float:right for the <img> tag or the enclosing <a> tag. As far as placing the CSS inline to simplify R&D, I would disagree. I think that having the CSS in an external file is much simpler. Change the CSS file, refresh the page in the browser and [b]BOOM[/b]: the changes are immediately visible. The way you have it now, your CSS is scattered between files and you will require some effort to merge/consolidate the code... Loading...
