    I have a problem with overlapping text. Every time we make a new html page we have the text overlapping i am not sure if it is to do with our CSS File or not. But i doubt it. I can email an html for you to view! Please pm so that i can send you the html file.

    I will give a nice tip. This is an easy fix, im just not good with HTML

    thanks!

    It sounds like it's a CSS problem, but pm me a link to a page where it's happening and i'll have a look.

    Thanks,

    You should try mac83's solution, also check to make sure you aren't forcing fixed height to div elements wrapping text which is too long to fit in. Careful with using the "float" property as well.
