Do you already have hosting and a domain? If so, do you already have WordPress installed? I may have some time to help you. Please feel free to contact me directly to discuss. susan at thewebdesignloft dot com

I tried to check in IE6, but it wouldn’t open for me. I kept getting a prompt to click ok before loading the rest of the contents. Weird. Anyway, I was able to see that the sidebar was NOT up next to the content. This means your containers are too large and/or there is too much space between the content and sidebar. Viewing in FF and IE7, some of your sidebar content even falls outside your main page container.

No, right now your footer is inside the main page container. Place it below the last </div> on the page. Or right above your google stuff.

That happens where there are a lot of floats going on. Add overflow: auto; to #wrapper.

Everything looks centered to me in IE6. Maybe give us a link to your own site? Perhaps you inadvertently changed something.

Probably in the footer.php. Whichever file contains

</body>
</html>

Place it right above the </body>.

Oops, sorry…I had the wrong info. I’m not sure yet why this is happening. I’ll have to come back to it.

Just remove it from the main page container and place it at the very end of your code (just above the </body>).

So, highlight this and cut:

<div id="footer">
<p class="credits">
Copyright &copy; 2007<br>
Christian Dating Experiences<br>
</p>

</div>

Then paste it after the last </div> on the page.

Hi,

I’m not sure if this will work, but try placing this in your CSS in the body section:

text-align: center;

To your CSS file, add something like this:

.storycontent a, .storycontent a:visited {
 color: #999;  /*This is the color of the regular link*/
 text-decoration: none;
}

.storycontent a:focus, .storycontent a:hover, .storycontent a:active {
 color: #3b4a61; /*This is what color it becomes when you hover or click*/
 text-decoration: underline;
}

I checked with both IE 6 and IE 7 and the fonts match Firefox in size for me.

Do this. In IE 7, Page (next to Tools at top) > Text Size > Medium. In IE 6, View > Text Size > Medium. Maybe you have your browser set to show everything larger than normal.

I’m not 100% sure on this, but it looks like the double-margin float bug IE has. Try adding display: inline; to .post_date .

I’m thinking it’s this. You have:

<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<center>
<!-- links -->
</ul>
</center>
</div>

Each element must be closed in the proper order. So, it should be:

<div id="navigation">
<ul>
<center>
<!-- links -->
</center>
</ul>
</div>

I ran the page through the validator and there were several other errors, so if this fix doesn’t help, let’s look at some of the other errors to figure out what’s going on.

Thanks for your reply. I really, really love this menu. I guess I’ll hard code everything in and in the meantime, look for a more semanatic solution. Semantics do matter to me very much.

Thanks again.
