Nice site.

Try adding float:left; to the #content styles, no guarentee's mind you.

I would also recommend putting the links into an unordered list, since that's what unordered lists are for.

thanks :D

The float:left doesnt do anything to it :(

And i changed that menu to be an unordered list, thanks for that :)

Any other ideas?

You can change the links to look exactly as they did before you know:

ul{
list-style-type:none;
padding:0;
margin:0;
}

ul li{
padding:0;
margin:0;
}Then add your styles on top of that.

Try putting the #menu div into the #content div, if it's floated right then the text should flow around it.

okay i fixed it, thank you.

Now another problem. In Internet Explorer my site doesnt show the footer as another div, just a continuation of the #content.

Also the size of the font in the footer is the way it is supposed to be in IE but not in firefox...

How would I go about fixing this?

looks like the div endtags got mixed up, so it thought it was just one, i dunno. Thanks very much!!

Well the layout was puched over to one side in IE due to a 180px right margin on your content div.
The footer was moved down 5px but was inside the content div and so the gray background "shone" through.

The title of this thread brought a smile to my face. If you're new to CSS, you will unfortunately get used to this.
