what do you mean by "out of the flow" of the page?

Please remember, a little self-help goes a long way and google is your
friend :-) Looking at your source there are a number of /relevant/
errors:

Viewing in IE7/8 is /not/ what I see in FF3 and Opera 9 (Win XP), and
IE6 (Win2k) shows only a blank page with a grey background (I know you
probably aren't supporting this browser but an empty page indicates a
serious issue).

Honestly John, all things considered, I recommend /starting over/ and
to that end if you can take the time to create and upload a graphical
representation of what you want the page to look like, someone here
(including myself) can probably get you heading in the right
direction.

Thanks, Mark..that's a pretty generous offer, I must say. I've been trying to write this thing as a means of helping myself learn the right way, but I must be pretty far in the weeds if you're saying chuck it and show a graphical representation. ;-)

the validator shows no issues that could explain what we see in Win/ IE; I'm viewing an improved version of the page. I guess my code is pretty bad...I'll put together a graphical version and post that.

Many thanks!

John
