  2. You would think that by adding margin to the h4 tag would push it down but it doesn't and someone told me once about this a few years ago as to why but I can't put my finger on it as to what that was.
  3. Either apply top padding to the class="widget-wrap" or just add 'display:inline-block' the h4 tag.
  4. Incorrect use of the image tag: <img>"http://auntievics.com/assets/ChunckyPeamuttButterCrunchies.jpg" </img> The correct way: <img alt="alternative text here" src="http://auntievics.com/assets/ChunckyPeamuttButterCrunchies.jpg">
  5. You have position:absolute in your #nav css. Remove that and see how it plays.
  6. First off, how large is that image you are using? Secondly, add no-repeat to the end of your background property to stop it from repeating itself. Finally, trying to get a background image to fit within a framework of the web page is one thing but if you are trying to make it fit the full screen of whatever monitor/resolution size is a whole different issue altogether.
  7. I checked the width for each of those divs and found that it equals the width of your wrapper which also includes the border widths. I see the page render correctly via IE9, IE8 & IE7, Firefox, Safari and Chrome running Windows 7. Since you and I do not see the problem maybe you should ask the person that is having issue what he is viewing it on. What OS? What browser? Have him send a screen capture as well.
  8. remove the bottom border for leftpad1, main, and rightpad1 and then add top border to leftpad2, centered and rightpad2

    Background Issue

    Just remove 'fixed' to allow the control of image positioning.

    Background Issue

    You can only have two positions for the background and this code has three: background: url(Button_green-graded.jpg) #33CC00 repeat right fixed top left; You can only have top, bottom or center for vertical positioning and left, right and center for horizontal positioning. The correct order background shorthand values should be: background: color url repeat position attachment
  11. get rid of that 'New site design...' script you have running. It's very very annoying. Thereafter we can take a look at what's going on.
  12. Sort of correct but look at the link tag again. You have a self-closing / slash in the open link tag plus a closing </a> tag. Self-closing link tag is not XHTML standard for anchor/link tags. Here's his code again with the red slash needing to be removed: <a href="http://www.theaimcompanies.com/products/herbal_fiberblend/powder_and_capsules.aspx?prodcode=3217E&lid=168&AIM_AXOwnerID=628037&aimstore=y" id="button" title="Try Herbal Fiberblend Today!" /><span></span> </a>
  13. The error is cause by a xhtml closing tag /. Just remove the forward slash shown in red. <a href="http://www.theaimcompanies.com/products/herbal_fiberblend/powder_and_capsules.aspx?prodcode=3217E&lid=168&AIM_AXOwnerID=628037&aimstore=y" id="button" title="Try Herbal Fiberblend Today!" /><span></span></a>
  14. Is your portfolio page in a different folder? If so, might set your links to use absolute paths instead of relative.
  15. Check with the app store to see if there is a plugin or app for it. You could probably google it: "Flash viewer for IPAD"
  16. Answer to question #1: You said you've used FrontPage in the past. Expression Web (EW) might be something easy for you to adjust to since it still has many or the same functions that you are familiar with except they are now standard compliant. EW also has PHP support where you can run your php files without having to upload them to your site or run WAMP. Additionally, EW can be purchased as an upgrade if you have any of the Adobe products or the Microsoft Office program. I am not sure what the cost is for Dreamweaver but it's still a good program to use if you prefer to use it instead of EW. Finally, you don't need to buy either one. I believe you can download both of them for a 30-day free trial. Also, there are many other free open source html editors out there that you can used instead. Some are fully loaded with everything you need while others have just enough functions to be sufficient in coding. I believe Andrea and/or Kyle has a comprehensive list somewhere on this forum.
  17. The host provider can vary but in a nutshell it should be something that has to do with passwording a folder in which case you would list the root url folder. Just go to your hosting control panel and look around for something like that. If you can't figure it out then submit a support ticket asking how. Keep in mind that if you are using .htaccess file you will need to rename/remove it or else it may not work. With that said, you could use .htaccess to block users from certain folders as well. I don't have the logic but it only requires just a few lines to make it work. Google it.
  18. You can set a ftp login for the domain so that when you browse to the url via the browser it will pop up a window requesting your login credentials. Since Google (and other search engine robots) does not have the login info it cannot index the site. Here a site url as an example: www.as pensystemsd irect.com (remove two spaces)
  19. Thanks Eric but it's not the solution I am looking for. The test #18 solution is allowing one column content to wrap around a centered div box. That solution reads each line of text from the left of the box and then jumps over to the right of the box. My content sample is set in two columns. The left column content will need to wrap around the left of the centered box while the right column wraps around the right of the box. I strongly believe this is not possible without jquery or something. Ben's suggestion is not perfect but it may be the only choice I have even though it will require a bit more of an effort to get it to look right.
  20. I did indeed thought of that method you've just mentioned but then the placment of the image gif will vary dependent on how much content is placed. The text wrapping could differ between the two columns. There are script methods but I have yet to find one that is...well..just plane simple...a no brainer. Although it will not work in my case right now but I wonder if there is a CSS3 solution for future use?
  21. I have a two column content page that has a div centered between them. My goal is to get the test for the left and right columns to wrap around the center div box. See attached image file. Any suggestions?
  22. I am trying to locate a jquery slideshow script that will allow me to just upload images and presto it's shows up on the slideshow. Right now I have tried a few possibilities and the only one I've found uses flash which I want to avoid due to iphone users. XML is okay but then it requires the client to edit that file in order for the images to display. In all previous cases I have use this method but this client is just not savvy enough to do something like this. In addition, (though not a priority), I need to be able to apply serveral instances within one jquery to allow which group of images gets displayed. Go here: nz ymes.com/pc/ho me.asp?a=dog (remove two spaces) As you can see a flash appears. When you click back and forth (top nav) between Pet Health and People Health you will see the flash changes to display another group of images. It's using a session varible to determine which folder containing the group of images to display. home.asp?a=dog will display the /dog/ folder's images. home.asp?a=people will display the /people/ folder's images. Adding or changing the logic probably not a big deal but it's important to find such a jquery slideshow script to make it a very, very simple process for the client.
