I didn't touch my site. Now it's messed up. What happened, anyone have any insight?

http://www2.onu.edu/~j-smith.6

Does it look right, cuz it doesn't on mine! The update is suppose to be right beside the navigation. I understand that someo of the links don't work or there is nothing on it, but otherwise, it was fine. I was messing with the background and all of a sudden, suck!

Could I get a little help over here?:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

Well your some of your mark up errors can be found at http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www2.onu.edu/%7Ej-smith.6/ but you're using the out of date and way wimpy transitional DTD.

yeah, someone told me how to fix that bullets thing, but i don't get it. And also, I'm not sure why the Updates <div> is not to the right of the webpage.

Okay, so I used a crude way of fixing it. I think I was messing with dimensions before, and put them in the wrong part. But I still need help with the bullets and that 'block' thing from the validator. You can see the errors that I'm talking about here.

<a href="index.html"><div id="front"><br /></div></a>
You can not have a block element inside of an inline element.

You may as well try: <div id="front"><a href="index.html"><br /></a></div>
but then your logo isn't clickable. Is there a reason that you are using a background image instead of one in the front? If it needs to be a background image does it need to be clickable?

Then get your list items in order and that will clear up the rest of your errors.

Triumph- in your code example (though it should have text...) a {
display: block;
height: 100%;
} Works.

Thanks, but I like what you said, either it doesn't have to be clickable or I will just make it a picture.

Alright, after lots of 'fun' work, I got something. Let me know what you think, and how I should change it...someone talk to me, I feel like I'm talking to myself here!

Yeah, I know. I ran into a header problem where the background was off. With my inexperience of CSS, it took me about an hour to completely fix after I figured out what was truely wrong. Next on the list is that. Do you have any idea how the code should go?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, when you go to the site, you 'should' see two logos, dublicated. I did that on purpose because I want to put a different, larger, non-logo type of image into the one on top and make the other one a link back to the homepage. As of right now though, the second, bottom, linked one isn't really registering, aka it's not working. :confused: I don't know why either. Could someone help a guy out?
