Whoot!
Finally I've managed to adjust an all_css layout I've been working on and it's solid in Firefox, IE 6, Safari 1.2, usable but not as good looking in Opera 7.0 and 100% well degraded but usable in NS4 & NS 3

IE 5.2.3 on Mac is a horrid mess that I will not bother with unless someone can point to an easy hack...

I'm getting one validating error on a </p> tag that is opened but it's reported as not, I can't spot it...
What do you think?

Your error is on lines 49-50:

49: <p>
50: <p class="textHolder">

Remember, P elements may only contain inline elements. That means, since this is HTML and end tag is optional on the P element, that the parser reads that as

49: <p>
50: </p><p class="textHolder">


And thus, your

92: </p>

Doesn't have a corresponding opening tag, since the one on line 49 already has been closed.






This is one of the reasons why XHTML makes sense...

It looks like you're trying to nest <p> tags; that's not allowed (which makes sense, since there's no such thing as a nested paragraph). Maybe you should replace the outer one with a <div>.

Nice page overall, though I don't like the background orange color. I think you should maybe shrink the outside margins.


 

Bloddy h**l !
How did I miss that!
Thanx!

That opening <p> is a leftover, not intentional...

As for the colors and margins, It's just an experimental page, as I get time I'll toss it up as a template for my site with other colors and mods, after all it's all css
