Ok files are back on there, I started adding them 1 by 1 to narrow the problem to a specific file. Turns out that as soon as I upload this file stylesheet_footer_menu.css the navCattabs menu breaks. I've attached an image of the effects when this file is uploaded. Any ideas.
Thankx

Did you upload the stylesheet_footer_menu.css

I removed it for now because once it's added it effects the navCattabs as shown in the attachment. That's the only file missing. I'll add it right now. www.fashionfavourites.com

Ok i managed to narrow the problem down to the highlighted line in this code
ul {margin:0;padding:0;list-style: none;}
li {margin:0;padding:0;}
/*li a {margin:0;padding-left:2em;display:block;}*/
li a:hover {background:#FFBD3B;}
Once this line is commented out, my navCatTabs is normal, however you can see the spacing in the footer menu is eliminated and everything seems squeezed in the footer(no padding). Any ideas where I can start this, do I just need to re-write this line and if this is the fix how can I re-write it so it does not effect navCatTabs.
Many thanks

Thanks Clyde the above changes work. I tried putting the footer in a top and bottom boarder, however the IMPORTANT LINKS section is longer then the rest and the bottom boarder does not contain it. What can I do to contain it in the boarder. Also once the site is veiwed in IE6 the IMPORTANT LINKS section is double spaced making it twice as long (although it is contained within the top and bottom boarder).
I think the second issue might be related to the first issue(but only you experts would know that):wink:

I want to re-arrange the links(i.e put contact us under quick links). What file would I need to edit, I've searching the root directory and not sure which files to modify to achieve this. Also If I want to add a little arrow beside the the menu title as in the attachment, how would I go about that.
finally I tried changing the color and text size of the links (from black to gray). I've temporarily changed every occurrences of #000 in (stylesheet_footer_menu.css) yet unable to change the color.
please view it www.fashionfavourites.com
@haredo this mod is available on Clyde's demo site here:http://mysticmountainnaturals.com/demotest/ (Sorry I do not know how to make it into an anchor link)

Alright we are almost there, I've added this line:
li a:link {color: #666;font-size:11px;margin:0;padding-left:0.8em;display:block;line-height:normal;}
Strange thing happens to the color and the left padding is lost. Only some links are gray the others are black:dontgetit
And I been trying to make the links narrow with a little white space around them so they are more legible. Maybe i just need to change the font family i don't know.
I want to make it similar to this footer: http://www1.macys.com/

Ok some strange things are happening and I've attempted to fix this many times, and many methods. none seem to help.
1. The color of the footer links is inconsistent (some are black some are gray)
2. The left padding disappeared for only the black links (Seems these links are not effected by the code at all). I am pasting my stylesheet_footer_menu.css file below for reference.
3. If I wanted to move the link "Terms of Use" under the title "Important links" to the "Quick Links" how could i do it?
4. I would also love to change the font style of the links but Can't seem to get it regardless of what I do to the file:frusty:
Finally when I change this line from this:
li a:link {color: #666;font-size:9px;margin:0;padding-left:1em;padding-bottom:.3em;display:block;}
To this:
li a {color: #666;font-size:9px;margin:0;padding-left:1em;padding-bottom:.3em;display:block;}
Few things happen:
1.The footer links colors and padding are all the same (all black)
2.regardless of the color value (#666) it's always black:huh:
