Hi, sorry I did not get back in here sooner, was away for a bit. Tiny (the dog) is doing great. She still fetches my shoes and her leash at walk times.

It looks like (I just went to your site) the links are somehow outside of everything. On a wide screen monitor, the list of links are to the right of the entire page, somehow being missed by the content box. If I make the screen smaller, the "and more..and more" links wander right off the right side of the page. I don't have an answer as to how to fix it, but I'd think there is something forcing it to the right, rather than allowing it to be inside of the content of the web page. Fix that, and it should work.

www.mainsites.ca is my website, and yes, some of it is crappy.

THIS IS SO MADDENING!!!

It works in FF and Opera, but in IE the content boxes are pushed to the right.

Thanks Dave, I am working with it today.

Is it me or does it seem that many things we do on the internet need IE work around. Is there some impairment at Microsoft?

David,

Was my example useful? I'd like to remove that temp directory.

Thanks!
