www.doodlebuckets.com Can you take a look at my main page and tell me what is determining the font size and style on the main page text? I want it to match the rest of the site but I it's not. I take the code from the Define Pages Editor and put it in my HTML editor (NVU) and it displays properly there. So the style must be coming from somewhere else and messing it up, right? Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure WHY its doing it, but for some reason the table in your center content section is using a larger font size. So go to define_main_page.php in your admin under "Tools", Define Pages Editor", and change this:

<table class="" style="width: 614px; height: 783px; text-align: left;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">

To this:

<table class="" style="width: 614px; height: 783px; text-align: left;font-size:1em;" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">

Can anyone help me understand what is going wrong with my attempt to insert my banner into the template? What I am attempting is to place this table:

<table width="760" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" id="navbarz">
<tr id="divnavbarz">
<td width="760"><div align="left"><img src="../assets/banner2008_01.gif" width="760" height="149" alt="Banner Top" /></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td id="divnavbarz"><a href="../index.html">HOME</a> | <a href="../store/history.html">ABOUT US</a> | <a href="../enews08/eventspg08v2.html">EVENTS</a> | <a href="../store/parentindex.html">PARENTS</a>| <a href="../store/teacherindex.html">TEACHERS</a> | <a href="http://www.goldenapplels.com/ZcartGA/">STORE</a> | <a href="../store/contactus.html">CONTACT</a> | <a href="../store/directions08.html">FIND US</a></td>
</tr>
</table>

at the top of the page in place of the logo.gif. It works fine in Safari & FF, but in IE it places a huge white gap - so huge that my IE customers think the page is blank. Am I attempting the impossible with this?

IIRC, the Apple Zen logo has content to its right controlled by a language file I think. Have you removed its structural code?

Don't use the table, do it with divs.

That got me 97% of the way there - thanks a bunch. I wish I understood div tags as well as I understand tables, but trial and error seems to be getting me there. I appreciate the help!
