I can't keep track of all your posts....So I'll post here on one of your other problems.....The image in the footer

comment out #footer and then replace #siteinfoLegal with this and see what you get

Code:

#siteinfoLegal {
        background-image: url(../images/newfooter.jpg);
	background-repeat: no-repeat;
	background-position: center;
	color: #000000;
	font-size: .9em;
	font-weight: bold;
	}

I wanted to use firefox web developer to test this but it doesn't do relative paths to images

You should also be developing for a more compliant browser like firefox first and then work on the adjustments for IE. I don't want to here about "most people use IE....blah, blah, blah" Its just the way it should be done as the bug fixes for IE problems are well documented.

i agree that is why i downlaoded frefox today... and that is why i pointed out a the differences... however, i cant find where i need to make the adjustments to center it on firefox.....

also your post got the image reduced and the text still posted at the top of the image..

thanks for your help btw... i am getting better with this.. soooo much to figure out

Change this to 100%

.centerColumn {
background-image: url(../images/back_bg.jpg);
border: 1px dotted;
border-color: #9B11A1;
width: 950px; change to 100%
}

OPTOMIZE the photos at the top of your site.

Take a look here and see if this is what you have in mind.

my demo site

If you look at the demo that clyde setup this is how he got the bottom image and the text in it:

Code:

 #siteinfoLegal {
 padding: 100px 0 0 0;
	color: #000000;
	font-size: .9em;
	font-weight: bold;
	text-align: center;
	background: url(../images/newfooter.jpg) center no-repeat;
	height:100px
}

clyde nice work can I get you to do my mockups

Sure, be glad to.

first ff.. you guys are D BOMB!...... That is Exactly what I wanted.... i tweaked the footer so the ip shows up in it as well and I am all set.... I am learning.... like what you did with the padding....... I am taking notes and checking them twice..... if i may ask another question.... i created empty category.. the 2 sub cats on firefox are off center... and then when you click one the "filter By: is soooo far to the left also... I know firefox doesnt read the "float: center" (ie apparently does that is why it is fine on ie) that is why it is not centering.. what is the correct syntax i should use.... 8)
