You are welcome, Dwain

Some notes :

As a class you can use it nicely :
<div id="header"  class="clearfix">
<div id="kdd"></div>
</div>

Instead of :

<div id="header">
<div class="clearfix">
<div id="kdd"></div>
</div>
</div>

You could use multiple classes too like : <div class="myClass clearfix">...</div> The goal is to use a semantic method by avoiding a line like the old method <div class="clear"></div> at the end of every container of floated elements

I am reading the book Don't make me think from Steve Krug at the moment.
Regards to the author mind, I would not say "I prefer left align text" or "left align text is better than justify align text", but looking at the last paragraphs, In term of usability - I, we, hope you find- is better than -I, we hope you find-. (Kind of what users view in resolution <=1024x768) What do you think of ? Take it easy, I was exciting by reading the book :). Not shure anyway if you are free to read some docs or interesting in text formatting, I recommend to you http://www.wpdfd.com/editorial/basics/ cssbasics4.html.

thanks pierre-henri. the clearfix after every third image did the trick. i was wondering about that, but everything else about the site seemed to work without it. now i've got to go change some more main page to reflect the solid look.

I didn't look at the css, I have a similar problem using a list.
I suppose you floated the elements and let them elastic, without setting a fixed height in the css property.

The simple solution is to keep a ratio in height to your thumbnails (thanks to markups or images) and idem setting a fixed height to the decription (this implies a maximum length characters)

Otherwise you can clear the last item of every line in case of a fixed gallery width, using for example the class clearfix on every third position item ( http://www.positioniseverything.net/ easyclearing.html)

i'm using a variation of eric meyer's picture gallery; without the slide mounts. i've been looking at this and shuffling pictures around and i've come to a stalemate as to why the calle d borbon image won't slide into place. in fact, there are others that don't follow suit either. i have placed horizontal pix next to each other as well as verticals next to verticals. the html and css validate. the rest of the images on the site seem to fall into place, so why not these; it's the same code? would someone take a look at this and help me solve it?
