    i think my title says it all except that i've tried everything i can think of to fix (i suspect the problem is in the css file).

    the page is http://www.fitnesshealthanddiet.com/ and i'd be grateful for any pointers.

    thanks, Pete.

    This may not be your solution, but you need to fix it anyway

    .article { padding: 10 10 10 10px; margin-bottom: 20px; }

    You need px after your 10s. Only 0s don't need a unit value

    Also, use an html validator to help you

    Go here to see the errors.

    you shouldn't be using the font tag, but that isn't causing your problems. It could be an unclosed tag. This page will show you if that is the case

    Some formatting - AT LEAST some carriage returns might make finding problems easier too.

    MOST LIKELY it's float double margin error - but the entire thing is such a jumbled mess it would take me 20 minutes of edits to tell you where to put it.

    There's compressing to save bandwidth - and then there's going overboard to where the bandwidth saved will NEVER be recouped compared to the manpower wasted trying to make even the simplest of edits.
