I am developing a site based around this structure, however something in
the complicated CSS of my site is causing it to not behave the same as

You are correct, it hasn't been 'officially' deprecated but as visual tags

While it is valid, applying innapproriate properties to elements is

I'll second the Textpattern reccomendation. It's free, and the
learning curve is very reasonable. It's easy for complete beginners to
use the system. And it cuts development time by a siginifigant ammount
because it uses a logical, non-constraining template system.

Nice design, and great work. Is the curve at the bottom of the page parallel
with the curve on the banner? It looks slightly out to me but it could just be
my eyesight! Lol
Always pleasing to see good UK design.
Well done!

Textpattern gets my vote too - I've found that it is very flexible.
We've used it for several sites including www.cope.ltd.uk and

Chris,
I can't speak to iframes because I use the CSS overflow style, which provides
the same basic
functionality, but requires using absolute positioning, and the height should
be insufficient to
contain the text, which will automatically generate a scroll bar:
#news
{position: absolute;

For the record, the div + css overflow does NOT have to be absolute

It can be block, or relative, or

Based on your requirements, I'd say your choices are Textpattern or Wordpress.

Both are equally semantic depending on how it's used. If it's a list of

days (Sun, Mon, Tues... Sat), then use a table.
