If you go back to: http://esctonline.com/new/

As for the lock image, how do I make the image and text to the right of it in the middle? The text seems to be down a little bit.

that's because it's cleared, remove the :
.path p {
clear:both;
}

rule to make it appear on the same line.

I did, now look at it. Looks a little different. What would cause that?

the only difference I see is that the red bit looks a little too tall, but that's easily solved.

what is the differrence between <div ID= and div CLASS=
What does the clear both mean

classes are expected to be reused, IDs are single use only.

clear: both
means that the element ALWAYS appears on the next line after the end of a floated element, it's useful for many things(eg footer with a floated menu?).

I tried to add this to my stylesheet

.path ul {
list-style-image: url(http://www.esctonline.com/new/images/note.gif);
}

And the image never appeared.

Do you know why?

you don't have any list's in the path div(you do inside main in a div called navigation, which is what I think your after.

yes. I am sorry.

It is for the path area.

The only problem is when I put that code there, nothing shows

li{
list-style-image:none;

is canceling your effects, remove it.

#navigation ul{
list-style-image: url(http://www.esctonline.com/new/images/note.gif);
}

works fine when I put it in your CSS(although the images don't look to be in the right place)

.content li {
list-style-image:url(images/li.gif);
list-style-position:outside;
list-style-type:disc;
margin-left:18px;
}the image from this code is showing, however it's in rather a bad place...
