another thing you could do is create the site in a subdomain or subdirectory of your site just for testing purposes and that way it won't interfere with your main site while still giving cc helpers ability to check out what's wrong.

Hi again,

I don't know what can best identify a link, different colour, different background colour, colour changes or underlining. I made you a suggestion some days ago, of which you left out a chunk of the css. Maybe accidental, maybe on purpose, I don't know, but this bit was left out:

.nav a
{
float: left;
margin: 0 2px 0 0;
background: #ACAE5C;
text-decoration: none;
font: 1.1em bold;
border: 2px solid #574827;

}


If you want the links to be underlined, just remove the line:

text-decoration: none;

One really helpful way to emphasize that specific text is a link is also to alter the weight and size of the font. Make it Larger and bolder and that helps to make it noticed too.

The larger and bolder were both included in that piece of css above.

Ahh sorry Inger, I wasn't sure since I didn't follow the other thread lol. I figured it was just a large and bold text to start with in your code and I wasn't specific like I was in my mind lol, I was meaning on mouse over rather than just the main text itself :)
