    It is the way that the list element is rendered. Add the following CSS and it should be perfect. *cough* should :D
    Code:
    ul {
    margin: 0;
    }
    Also, I would recommend saving your CSS as a file on it's own and referencing it from each of your pages. It just means that you only have to update the CSS, rather than every page ;)

    In addition, check the following frequently:
    http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...idator%2F1.591
    http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/v...ning=1&lang=en

    The first will highlight your HTML errors, and the second will highlight CSS errors.

    Hi Scoochi2
    Thanks I made the changes to the CSS and the site is much improved on most browsers except for pre IE 7.

    I might just leave it like that but if there are any other quick fixes to get it to work on IE 6 and 5.5 i'd love to know them

    thanks again chi

    I would check it out for you but I don't have IE6. And to get IE7 I'd have to restart into Windows, lol.
