First issue: NN7 doesn't like it that you set the width on <body>
solution: wrap all your contents in a div, and set the width on that div
div#wrapper {width: 738px; margin:auto;}
Second issue: NN7 isn't seeing the style for your div#sidebar for
some mysterious reason. I think there must be some hidden invalid
character in your file, at the top of the file, but my text-editor
refuses to show it.
If I create a brand new file (home.css), then the stylerules for
#sidebar are applied.
Third issue: May I politely, but strongly, suggest that you drop that
browser detection script. I first accessed your site with my home
made Camino build (compiled 1 hour ago - with the latest code out of
the Gecko tree). But your script tells me I need to update my browser
- anything available for download is older than what I use.
If you absolutely need to do some browser detection, remember, Gecko
is Gecko [1].
