Hi List,

Here are a couple of links to current live versions of
the template I pointed to down below. The template
server requires password access which I'm not really
allowed to hand over.  

http://www.nj.com/news/
http://www.pennlive.com/lehighvalley/

Same thing applies and worse they've got more errors. 

Again all feedback welcomed. 

TIA,
Elli
