Very nice, I like it. Just the blue shadow around the content is a little bright in the middle part.

Your internet address link does not work.
-
Well it is blue for me in Firefox 3, have you linked the css file or are you using internal css, you might not have linked it properly.

I don't think it matters whether you learn graphic design or web design first. However, you will need to learn HTML and CSS first together and if you are familiar with Photoshop and Illustrator you will then be able to design and build static websites.
Once you have a good handle on that, you can move on to learning the programming languages. I wish you luck with both, it is difficult to be good at both aspects because of the left brain right brain syndrome.

As LSW says, only the purists use the method I mentioned in the previous post. Otherwise don't bother as long as the rest of your code validates. I noticed that you still have an issue with a
tag.

That is the problem with Flash.
There is a workaround which can be found at this address

As Thelma explained, it would be better to put your line "Links to Local Golf Sources" within an
tag which you could then style and the rest of your paragraph in tags.

I guess you are on a budget or you would be hiring a professional, so here are a couple of links to point you in the right direction.
Remove spaces from the links:

This site will create a logo for you based on your choice of symbol and text.
ww w.getfreewebdesigns.c om/
Template based site with loads of web designs, to give you an idea of colour schemes. You can also download the templates and use them for free.

I would delete Firefox from your preview list and then add it back in again. If you need the exact steps to do this I can tell you.
-
If you are using a template there are some regions which are editable and other that are not.
To make changes to the locked regions of a template you must detach the document from the template. You can find instructions on how to do this in DW help.

Go to System Preferences - In Hardware go to Keyboard and Mouse - Keyboard Shortcuts, there you can change the keys to anything you want.

That is because you have no containing
for the whole of your web page which you could then centre on the page usingmargin: 0 auto.
When you set up a web page you should divide it into sections - to give you a basic idea
Content for header goes here -
Well no one else here has tackled this so far, so here is my humble opinion, and I am not even going to mention the validation issues or the mix of inline and linked CSS.
To me your site does not look professional. Besides not understanding what it's about, although I do have a vague idea about the stock market, there is no specific information on your site explaining what you do. That's fine if your clients already know what they want, but for someone who is looking for information and who happens on your site, it would be take a look, don't understand and leave.
From a design point of view:
You are using a lot of the same size fonts so none of the points you want to stress or advertise are standing out.
Your
is the same size as the "We are still under development".They are also no clickable links to explain or expand on each feature.
The header logo is very small and amateurish and your whole site lacks colour.
In fact the only thing that really stands out are the Google ads on the right hand side because there is some change in colour and font.
I am not a fan of Facebook at the best of times, but you are linking to a social networking site on which you have very few "friends" - One look at that and I would certainly not take the advice from your site about investing my hard earned money, especially with the huge disclaimer at the bottom of every page. Said disclaimer should be written much smaller and be a link to a separate page from the footer with all the legalese.
Sorry to be so disheartening, I am sure you are very good at what you do, unfortunately your website does not translate it.
-
If your web site is going to be viewed internationally you need to use UTF-8. It is able to represent any character in the Unicode standard, yet is backwards compatible with ASCII.
-
The class tag needs to be on the tag because that is the state which is changing colour, not the
- tag.

Glad to help out

In your CSS you should put
#nav1 li a.current {
background: #AED3D9 url( selectedMenu.jpg?z=16168 ) repeat-x;
color: #000000;
}
and in your html page

You do not have to partition your hard drive if you buy software such as VMware or Parallels. They cost about $80 and you can try them for free for 30 days. I have VMware and it is a breeze to install and run.
It is invaluable to test web sites cross platform and cross browser. You can then use a stand alone version of IE6 and a regular version of IE7, plus Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera for Windows or any other windows program that you may care to use.
As everyone here says all the time, code for Firefox and then test in IE6 and IE7 and fix.
Here is a list of all the fixes from IE6 to IE7 that might help you

That is why patience is a virtue, or again "All will come to those that wait".
I always run late because I hate to wait, I know it's not very polite to those that have to wait for me, I like to think they do so because "I'm worth it" to coin an ad...LOL:D

In Firefox, Opera and Safari it shows up under the banner. Add 20px to the top margin in the sidebar div to move it down the page.

There is also an excellent tool that allows you to sample colours from any website on Firefox and gives you the Hex codes
http://www.colorzilla.com/firefox/
As is the Firefox web developper toolbar.

Well yes, it may be deprecated and may not validate, but I was just giving him a solution to the question he asked. Sorry if i am ruffling feathers here, but neither Google nor Yahoo validate either.
Personally as a user I think he has a valid point:
"But my experience with customers and ordinary joe bloggs is that they will close when current window expect to see your site and not to have to use the back button."
How many Joe Bloggs know about the right click - open in new tab/window option? Most of my friends use computers on a daily basis, but are incapable of the simplest tasks. Updating to a new version of a web browser where the buttons are no longer in the same place is a major hassle, not to mention regular updates for their computer. And I am not talking about accessibility challenged people.

From your Mac you can view what your site looks like in various PC browsers through
http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/
Some designers/developpers are not bothering too much about IE6 anymore as IE7 and IE8, not to mention Firefox, are now taking a large portion of the market.
Dreamweaver will in no way help you simplify the quirks from browser to browser. It is better to get a good grip on html and css and use a text editor and test in different browsers. I am presuming that your MacBook does not have an Intel chip, that could possibly be your next big investment as it will enable you to test your site on both platforms from the same machine.
