Works Perfectly - Thanks loads! I have one more Question on this template. I want to center the global nav menu and the sub-global nav menu. I can do this with text-align center in the CSS for the global and sub-global nav sections in the CSS. It works fine in all browsers except IE 5 on my Mac O

I am running IE 6 on Win 2K Adv Server. This is an interesting wrinkle. I imagined MacroMedia would not turn out a template that did not work in all browsers on all platforms. I used a 1024x768 screen resolution and if I resize the IE6 window horizontally the capsule story section drops down belo

In CSS 2.0 you would use: img { page-break-inside: avoid; } if it were supported, but unfortunately AFAIK it isn't. You can try: #selected-img-that-breaks { page-break-before: always; } which should work, but you need to know ahead of time which image is going to break your page. ./tdw On 2004-1
