Problem displaying photos with text

    I am having a problem getting the text and photos displaying correctly at http://ColdLaserEquipment.com with all browsers. With FireFox it shows okay but not with Netscape or IE.

    The page is in PHP http://ColdLaserEquipment.com using /inc/menubar.php for the left side menu.

    Can anyone please offer suggestions on how I can get the text to display correctly along with the photos?

    Thanks for the responce. You are 100% correct that failure to validate may be all or part of the problem.

    The problem I am having is I do NOT know how to fix what is wrong or how to validate the site.

    I know enough about making changes to try it on my own however since I have been making small changes over and over for a few years I seem to have made small mistakes over time that have added up to larger issues.

    I have another post about this at http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1241457

    I attached my php files to that post

    I am perfectly willing to pay for a person to fix the problems I have created. As much as I appreciate free help I also know that consulting services should not be free nor should they expected to be free

    Your assistance is welcome and appreciated.

    the validation error message says what you need to do
    line 774
    i.e. your
    <!� google_ad_section_end �><br />

    as you may see in above quoted text the questionmark symbols are the faulty NON-utf8 characters
    that most likely comes from copy/pasting code with UNqualified tools and without properly converting character settings from source to target

    correctly it should be TYPED with the SAME editor as you use for all page code !!!
    and read as

    <!-- google_ad_section_end --><br />

    if you want to succeed in your business you'll have to learn such basic stuff yourself
    if your niche is important for the WORLD then you'll find the power to do so

    after above correction
    revalidate and fix ALL else
    I can NOT be purchased for such jobs, I have my own full time job with my site but you'll find time and Googel search-help to do all else on your own

    God bless
