    Well, screenshots aren't going to tell us anything about your problem. We'd need to see code to even START to address it.

    oops, didn't see the URL in the screenshots, one moment, looking at your code...

    Ok, cleaning up the 15 validation errors might be a decent start... the bit about the premature end of code is a possible cause, though the markup is rubbish... Most of which can be blamed on this:

    <!-- DW6 -->
    Code (markup):
    Dreamweaver, as I keep saying the only thing you can learn from dreamweaver is how NOT to design a website. Looking at the markup you have inlined styling in the markup that may or may not conflict, the DIV nestings are convoluted and in a nonsensical order, it's class and div heavy, and all the class names are cryptically vague - a sure sign of the steaming pile known as dreamweavers design view. I'm also seeing radically different appearances between FF/Opera/Safari/IE, so the problems are not simply IE/FF, but across all browsers.

    I'd throw it out and start over to even TRY to address any cross browsers issues.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I was hoping I didn't have to scratch it and restart; it was my second coding and I know it's messy. I've checked every single browser w/ browsershots and it seems it's only MSIE 6.0 and below with the issue + a few random browsers - not quite sure what you mean about the radical differences in appearance.

    Anyway, I'll prob semi scratch it and hope it works.
