    Default Re: Need continuity among all pages.

    Hmm. Sorry to have to say this, but that template is completely broken.

    Although the home page looks OK, it's not. There's too much content in the central area to the extent that the category box is pushed completely outside of where the site is supposed to go to and floats free in it's own space, looking OK, but really not.

    The inside pages look worse as there's not so much content in the centre so the box moves back towards where it should be.

    There also doesn't appear to much stopping the main contents of the page from floating up into the header.

    I'm not wanting to be harsh here, but if a client brought this to us and asked us to fix it, we'd start over with a working template. So I'd agree with RescoCCC.

    I appreciate you opinions and suggestions.

    If you're loading the site in IE, then it doesn't work, which is another problem. I'm using Firefox.

    In Firefox, the home page loads as I wish, with the side boxes slightly separate from the main body of the page. Instead of content pushing the boxes out of place as supposed, I adjusted margins to place them where I wanted.

    .leftBoxContainer, .rightBoxContainer {
    margin: 0em 0em 4.0em .9em;
    border: 0px solid #024B8A;
    border-bottom: 3px solid #024B8A;
    margin-top: -3.4em;
    }


    Then I extended the center column to span the entire main body.

    .centerBoxWrapper {
    border: 0px solid #9a9a9a;
    height: 1%;
    margin: 1.1em 0em;
    width: 900px
    }


    To relocate the header nav text, I used Stevesh's suggestion:

    #navMain ul {float:right;}

    Now I'm in search for a solution to why the other pages don't conform to these adjustments.
    I await your thoughtful response.
    Thank you
