Tags that used to not require closing in HTML like img, br, hr, meta, etcetc now need that "trailing slash" (for lack of a better term) but all other tags that had a closing tags stil do like div, p, h1, em, strong etcetc classes are for reusable styles, you should use IDs for elements that will appear only once in the page, like the structural elements "wrapper" "outer" "inner" etc. Your ID and class names should be descriptive, like "wrapper" is good, it tells you what it is, but "left" is a bit vague, try to write with other people in mind, would it make immediate sense to someone else? "left" could become "leftcol" or more generically/flexibly "secondarycol" in case you decided you wanted it on the right instead of left when you redesigned down the road. "wide bottom" and "wide top" are pretty much universally known as "header" and "footer" if you'd like to take the preceding suggestion to heart, thought wide* is descriptive (and I kinda like "wide bottom" ;)). I didn't know you could use spaces in ID or class names (couldn't find a definitive answer, new one on me!). I just realized by looking at the css that those are 2 classes and not an id name, had 1 id stuck in my head :) Anyhoo I [url=http://disk919.com/bb2/www/cprompt/]monkeyed up a couple[/url] to show you what I'm talkin about, I know I like a picture to go with words.
