Many thanks for your advice on the subject. I guess kind of got caught up in
the part that said the proper use of this element makes documents more
accessible.

There is no reason at all that the validator would choke on Turkish
characters, if the text is properly encoded in utf-8.
I ran a test, and think I know what the problem is. If you run the validator

is not - it's

Bear in mind that language declarations are totally separate from character
encodings. For example, French can be encoded in several different ways,

I see what you mean (1280 x 1024) but don't know how to counteract this.
I have the image set to repeat-y and the background colour set to
white to blend in with the far right of the image. It looks like the
image is repeating.
Kind regards

Use span instead of div.
That seems to give a more pleasant outcome.

it jumps like that because no CSS is actually loaded (well - nothing
that has any signifcant impact on style) until the JS routine runs
after the rest of the page is loaded.
It could be fixed easily by having a default style that made eveything

I can appreciate the dl approach. I'm often worried that I will end up abusing

hello - the problem you are experiencing is that netscape (and
firefox, which the design also dosn't work in) use a slightly
different box model than IE, which translates visually into the
occasional extra whitspace at points (also, they tend to have
different default padding and margin settings).
Hello Matheus,
Before even starting to address the problem, you need to do a couple of
things.
I notice your styles are completely embedded in your HTML.
Additionally, you are not declaring a doctype in your HTML file, which
could be part of the problem.

I doubt it is a problem with FF. Most likely the server is not set up
correctly and is sending the file as text/plain not as text/html.
It works in IE because IE renders the document based on the file

Probably because IE is more forgiving if the server does not have the
