This article was great. I had been reading up and still can't get the
footer to work.
I need to try the
.clearing {
height: 0;
clear: both;
}
Maybe that will work. The page I was on was saying I need to adjust for
the height and add a container. Suggested using javascript to figure
the height, but I don't like putting javascript on the page.
My current work in progress is now at:
http://dbsdev.myflorida.com/try999.shtml
The style sheet is at http://dbsdev.myflorida.com/mystyles/default.css
I'm still not happy. I had to take the H2 out of the menu list and now
I have space, and I used px to get stuff to lay out, and that won't work
cause some of my customers will be changing text size to large. This is
a lot of work! I guess it will get easier as I learn more.
I looked at the w3 site and they don't use division id at all that I
could see. Everything is set up using division class. I wonder if I
need to rethink how I set up the site and just uses lots of classes like
they did. <sigh> I'll keep reading.

Best bet may be to start with a layout that is known to work, and then
plug your content into it. I'd suggest that you read, follow, and use
the 2col layout on this
page<http://www.alistapart.com/articles/negativemargins/> . Code for
compliant browsers(Opera, Firefox, and Safari); the members of the list
will help get it to work in IE. It is using absolute positioning, among
other things, that's causing most of the problem on your current page.
And, it is the use the same id more than once on the same page that is
hanging up the markup validation. If you have an named: #apple {...},
you can only use <div id="apple"> once.
