Need help w/a quick fix, how much should I pay?

    I'm not well-versed in HTML or CSS...but usually manage to get by with playing around with simple templates.

    This time though - I wanted to replace a header on a site and I messed it up...I'm know I messed up the html a bit, but I may have touched something in the CSS too :(. I'm pretty sure this is just a quick fix type of thing that someone with experience could do 1,2,3...so what should I offer or expect to pay? Thanks.

    Don't pay anything. Just post a link to the site you need help with here and someone will be more than happy to assist.

    Great - thank you. I'm glad I asked first :D.

    Here's a page with a bad attempt at getting the header in and here is a page at what happened when I took it out.

    Okay, that's a pretty simple layout. All you should need is a DIV that contains the entire page, a DIV for the header (that in turn contains an image element and your ad script), an unordered list for the main menu, a DIV for your content container (and another one that holds it), and a footer.

    Tell you what. Let me get home (I'm about to leave so I can make it back before midnight), and I'll whip up a custom template for you that you can use free of charge - without attribution. Sound good?

    Dude their is a very simple problem you have. In index page you placed a forground image for logo & header purpose while in 2nd page i.e about us, you are trying to do it with CSS. You must first decided which way you have to do it and than repeat same code in both pages for header. BTW, the CSS path leading to header background is invalid. Specify the correct path.

    Thanks Sajoo, I'm pretty sure I understand everything you are saying up until 'specify the correct path'. But will try to fix what you just pointed out anyway.
