    css problem White Space Above Header

    Hi,
    Hope someone can help me.
    My site looks fine in IEv8 compatibility view, however if viewed without compatibilty view, in FireFox & Safari I get the dreaded white bar above the header & the Home, Log In & Search buttons are mis-aligned.
    Can anyone please tell me what changes I need to make in the stylesheet so that there's no bar or mis-alignment whichever browser I use?
    I'm running version 1.3.9h
    www.BlackburnModels.com

    Many thanks in advance

    You have apparently attempted to delete the tagline, but left the <h1> tags in the define. Since the define is not empty
    if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '') {
    a blank <h1> is output which takes up space.

    Many thanks for your quick reply.
    When I "View Source" I can see the bit you are referring to, but I can't figure out how to edit it!
    I've been looking in /includes/templates/mytemplate/css/stylesheet.css.
    Where should I be looking?
    Thanks again,
    Chris

    In a language file which has statements like
    define('WHAT_EVER', 'What ever');

    Use Tools > Developers Toolkit to search for HEADER_SALES_TEXT and see where it is defined.
