I changed the resolution as I was aware that I had tested the design in a
variety of resolutions up to 1024x768 and I wanted to see if the increased
resolution was the cause of the problem.

The width of the page was actually based on visitor feedback. It ensures
there's no more than 10 words to a line which increases readability. I
appreciate that a full-screen, percentage-based design would allow visitors
to change their window size as they see fit but the visitors I'm serving
generally don't bother and browse full-screen.

Thanks for letting me know. These errors, at least, seem to be fixed,
although Internet Explorer 4.01 doesn't display my logo anymore... Hmmm... I
fixed the above simply by re-ordering the css...

Some days CSS just gets me :-)

Thanks for your help.

All the best,
