Well everyone we have started unveiling the new German Shorthair Pointer, website.  Please take the time to have a look and provide some feedback.  Keep in mind while I have a good deal of html experiance this is the first time I have worked with templates and css.  I also meant to keep the site with a very clean look.  I have added incoming rss feeds as well.  Site is www.gspdog.net.

Thanks and Happy New Year

Jim, to be honest, the site doesn’t look right for me in FF 1.5. The navigation shows below the content.
Looking at the source of the front page, there are a couple of problems and warnings reported - starting with an unexpected (doubled) html-tag in line 3 and ending with a missing div somewhere (that might be the reason for the problem with the navigation display). I’d suggest to use some tools to find the errors and install Firefox with developer extension ... thats a great helper for finding problems with the source code.

Thanks Marcus I found the double HTML tag still looking for the missing div tag, I loaded up FF so I could see the issue, and had the same result does not occur in IE.  Thanks for the feedback.

Sorry to say, the same problems appear in Safari also.

The issue with Fire Fox has been resolved I suspect it has been solved for other browsers as well.  It leaves me with two questions but I will leave those for the CSS questions area. =D What I discovered you can not use blogs lets say at 70% and Sidebar at 20% so it does not allow the page to be resized based on screen resolutions or browser window size.  But I will save that question for the technical section.  If someone can let me know if other browsers types display properly.

Thanks,
Jim

Everything has shifted back up in Safari. Without digging into your CSS, I suspect you are running into the infamous “box model” problem. Basically, IE has a flaw and calculates widths wrong, or more pointedly, doesn’t adhere to the standards recommendation whereas the other modern browsers do. That’s why most of us design for Firefox/Safari (standards), then apply hacks as needed for IE.

Thanks I seem to have this one resolved on those recommendations!
