Thank you Rob, I now know about template Monster problems the hard way. I didn't start really reading these posts until AFTER I purchased the template. Unfortunately, I paid for this and I feel like I have to make it work. If there is any upside to this, it's that I have learned more about CSS, etc. than I ever thought I would even need to. Anyway, I will try your fix tonight and let you know how I make out.
I have contacted the Template Monster help desk and informed them of the problem. I have gone back and tried their "Live Demo" of this teplate (#12497) and the demo has the same bug/issue. They claim to be working on it and will get back to me soon. I will let you know how their support team does.
I've added the template # to the title, hopefully to assist anyone in the future interested in this particular template.
Thank you again.
Mick
