i;m honestly not sure. i personally find it very frustrating to debug themes as one tiny little error fudges up the whole thing. i think the easiest solution is to use a third party generator. if you go here you can find some good ones. http://googlesystem.blogspot.com/2008/01/creating-igoogle-themes.html i suggest you use the second one. its really handy to see your changes in-line and the code it generates is always good. it does however use the deprecated icon colours. but if you have a look in my FAQ there's some info on that.
