| 787717 | 2009-07-01 22:52:00 | Firefox can ignore missing tags but IE has a problem with them. The "body" tag at the bottom of the page is also missing it's closing ">" IE used to be the one that didn't mind broken HTML. I've checked a few CSS forums & the background CSS should have a few extra ' in it, like thus: body {background: url('arise_bkgrd_square.jpg'); font-family: "Arial", Arial, Helvetica, sans_serif; color: #000000; p {font-size: 40px}); |

| 787719 | 2009-07-02 03:19:00 | autechre - Changes made but still not working. Added a new font in sub pages and found it doesn't come up either until the page is refreshed, then we get a blue background and the new font. Looks like the problem is related to the .css pages. Will keep trying. Blam6 - thanks for that. KB |

| 787720 | 2009-07-02 03:33:00 | My wife has just created her first web page, for a friend. It comes up fine in Mozilla, our browser of choice, but IE 7 has problems with displaying the background colour, requiring a page refresh to do so. Can anyone offer advice as to how to correct this? All help much appreciated. KB. Have you though about building it via an online sitebuilder. Most web hosts provide you with one, many for free, and much easier than trying to cobble together your own code, unless you know what you are doing. Many of the templates they come with aree very professional looking, and you can create contact forms easily. |

| 787722 | 2009-07-02 04:17:00 | Lots of little typos in tags - missing closing brackets, some </br> (which is not a valid tag, linebreak is a single tag not a paired tag), etc. Some tags getting opened and never closed. The .css file is badly formatted. | inphinity (7274) | ||
| 787723 | 2009-07-02 07:05:00 | Agree with everyone commenting on the messiness. Although it looks all there. There a quite a few html cleaners around. I use the one prebuilt in the software I use but have a look around. Its basically a spell check for html or css. And they can format it better so its easier to read and edit |

| 787724 | 2009-07-02 07:08:00 | First result in google here (http://htmlcleaner.sourceforge.net/) There are probaly better ones around but something like that will save alot of headache over one or two typos |

Also no doc type is defined, which IE looks at. They really need to design it either in an online sitebuilder, or using Dreamweaver, which helps with the coding. |
