Website won't scroll for Droid or...

Thank you so much! Those changes helped a lot. Though I still can't get it to scroll to the bottom, there is much more available in the first place - which helps. I will check out that program. I like my design for the most part though would prefer a shorter page with a flip book. Have had that on the 'need to learn' list too ;o).. I don't understand why they would change basics like capitalization and not and the positioning of the closing/... very annoying. I will still be showing plenty of errors because I changed as much as I could when I understood what it was asking me to change..:D

Haha Per.. I know it is a soupy mess.. or is it a messy soup?..lol.. I hope to get it looking better soon. Believe it or not, I used to think I was pretty neat. When having to deal with all the bugs in HotDog but unwilling to move away from it, I lost a LOT. There were things in that program that would lead to visual errors for no reason! Anyway, hopefully soon I will get back on track. Ideally, I'd like to keep my menu type of page but shorten it with some other system to show photos. I want it to load quickly too. I used to be on dial up and HATED pages with so many images it took me forever to load. That is why I have a sale page that only has a single image of the horse I am selling. If they are interested, you figure they don't mind taking some time to download more info.etc.. I hope you're right and when I fix all the errors, it will fix the scrolling problem. Right now it's still not good. I also need to make those changes to each of my pages.

I have a template file that I use to create a new page.. I need to start there with the changes.

Here is my template.. Now I wonder if I should go back through and change all the capitalization and tags to the old system or leave what I have in preparation for moving to the new?

Robyn, you should google for and read about web safe fonts. Amienne is not one of them, and that means that only people who have that particular font installed, will be able to see it. For everyone else, there will be some other font as a substitution.

Good point, Inger. I just see really big Times New Roman everywhere.
I don't have Amienne or Boopee :P
