On the #footer p, try margin : 0; On the #topnav ul try padding-left : 0; However, this may affect the layout in other browsers. Firefox (and Mozilla generally) uses padding to layout lists On the #walks p etc, you could try a negative margin-top, though this will no doubt mess up IE. Hope that's a start.

HTML is at: http://www.bluemountainsgardener.info/index-try.htm CSS is at: http://www.bluemountainsgardener.info/style-accessible.css No skip nav yet, but the layout doesn't break in IE6 at "largest" text size. So I'm progressing !! It works exactly as I wish in IE6 ... problems lie with Opera 7.23 and Mozilla Firefox 0.8 as follow .... The text line in the footer lies just below the black footer, not within it. I cannot work out why. In Mozilla Firefox, there's a positioning problem with the horizontal menu in the header. It's meant to line up with everything on the left hand side of the page, but it's indented in Firefox for some reason that I cannot fathom. It's fine in IE6 and Opera 7.23 !! Finally, in the right column, I'd like to know a way of reducing the gap below the headers in the infoboxes - one that will display the same *in all browsers* !! I'd really appreciate any help you can offer. This Discussion List is like life-support to me - thanks again, folks.
