I modified my navigation css with your and Kevin's suggestions. The
navigation bar is exactly as I want it. Thanks...

I tried but failed to build the middle section without tables.  I will
go back and try again. As for someone else help, can't happen. I'm a
one man show..  I'm sure I can lay it out in HTML using Dreamweaver.

In the bottom section, "Add a New Author", I just can't seem to get
the "Add Author" push button to be underneath the input boxes.

Thanks again for the help..
