Good luck with the fix. For what it's worth, I glanced over some of
those validation errors and a fair amount are associated with the markup
being inconsistent with the doc type declared.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
The site is declaring itself to serve XHTML 1.0 Strict, which means HTML
elements/tags should be in all lower case, attributes surrounded by
quotation marks, and all elements to be explicitly closed, among other
things.
When you get around to it, you might want to consider changing your
DOCTYPE or updating to XHTML restrictions.
Regards,
Rich

Tom-
I understand - I guess I was just looking for a possible solution to my problem
and not what I got from Chris.
It's been a bad day but I'm not one to blame my actions on that, so I do
apologize to all (including Chris)...
I do understand the "invalid code" issue, and perhaps it does have something to
do with it but it doesn't seem like that is the issue with this specific problem here...
Thanks for the reply, and I am going to go and work with what Georg sent :-)

Though Chris *may* have sounded a bit curt (email is notorious for not
conveying tone), it's fair for others to assume that your issue may be
*because* of invalid code. Not the other way around.
That said, Georg, as always, has a fine solution for the nav gap. Give
that a go. Then try tackling the errors. Fixing them may fix a lot of
other things. Good luck.

Chris-
Thanks for the validation news - I guess If I asked someone to validate my code
I would have put in the email...
I also guess since I'm having an issue with this page that it obviously
wouldn't validate correctly and I wouldn't be spending my time validating it
until I fixed the issue.
Don't fall off your high horse...
Cheers!
