I found the problem, it was something in a table, instead of just a file. I pulled it out of the include and just plopped it in.

Yup, I can fix tags! Thanks!

you can't fix missing tags?

Thanks Suzanne!

Yes, I saw those errors, I did run it through the validator...I'm calling in 2 separate nav.php's and I can't change how that is written as they are being called in...I didn't write the code that way. Does that make sense?

Any clues as how to get around it? I guess I need to wade through the code and figure out another way to pull those in. Hm.

have you validated your code, Sara? it's showing up fine in N7, but you have a number of technical errors -- http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.simplysara.com/blog/&charset=(detect%20automatically)&doctype=(detect%20automatically)&verbose=1

down around 210 and 211, you see this:

Quote:
# Line 940, column 35: ID "sidebar1" already defined (explain...).

^

# Line 940, column 16: ID "sidebar1" first defined here (explain...).

That can definitely cause problems.

Numbers 320 and 321:

Quote:
320. Line 1092, column 6: end tag for "div" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified

^

321. Line 54, column 0: start tag was here (explain...).

^

Those may be the problems with N6 & with Opera.

I'm having a problem with an entire table not showing up in NS 6...any help would be wonderful!

The addy is: simplysara.com/blog/

I kinda want it to show up, y'know. And in Opera 6 it shows up but it's split over the main blog entries.

Any clues?

Thanks!

Super! Do consider getting yourself a CSS editor, though, it will speed up your learning a lot.

Thank you suzanne, I should have known that. I just started learning CSS through w3schools.com Fixed the problem, works like a charm.

Well, this one's easy -- you don't have any elements for that top declaration.

It *should* read....

body, table, td, p {font-family: sans-serif;}

Or something similar.

You may wish to toy with the idea of validating your CSS -- it would find these problems very easily and help you learn how to use CSS at the same time. Using an application like bradsoft.com (top style) on the pc would really help.
