Leslie you're a legend, That fixed it, I added the JS include just recently as that is what hostway want u to add to enable their "enhanced" web stats product called Urchin. For the life of me at the time I didn't put 2 and 2 together and pick it up, I couldn't remember killing my style sheet. I think I will mention this to hostway.
I replied directly cause Im gettting the list as a digest, and am not sure how this list works yet... I just hit reply I thought. If I reply to the list will it automatically thread the conversation and all that? Or is there a NNTP version of the list anywheres? I prefer it that way usually... Thanks for the help Jason >From the Urchin Documentation: (from hostway) Regardless of which method you use, the following line of code should be included in the beginning of each HTML page that is delivered to the visitor. Note that there are two underscores at the beginning of the file name. <script src="/__utm.js"></script> (...existing content....) <html><head>.... -----Original Message----- From: Leslie Riggs [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 17 September 2004 2:06 PM To: Jason Bayly Subject: Re: [WSG] Problems with fluid tables in css layout Hi Jason, The first thing that hit my eyes when I looked at the source was a script before the document type declaration. DTD should be first in the source, otherwise it won't validate. Because of that, the validator defaults to HTML 4.01 and you're trying to get it to XHMTL 1.0 Transitional. That would be the first thing I'd fix, then run the validator and see if any other errors show up, fix those. I'm not sure if that will take care of your problem, but we always recommend you validate your source and CSS when you run into problems, fix any errors, THEN see if you still have a problem and can't fix it. If that's the case, come on back and tell us the steps you took Leslie Riggs p.s. Was there a reason you only posted the URL privately to me? Others might also have some suggestions too...
