Notice the annoying scroll bars on the article? These need to go but the problem I'm having is that auto doesn't automatically make the divs inside of it the proper size, inherit-I have no idea what this is causing my divs to inherit from...as far as the effects I've gotten using it.
I'm completely confused by this because it should be menu22, menu3 and the articlepage div conforming to the article height with the mailinglist2, freebie22, menufour2 and whitespace22 divs relatively positioned under the article itself.Up til now I did all exact px positioning and I'm REALLY lost here...
!!!Css CodeDon't use position:absolute; for this purpose.
If you set something to position:absolute; it removes it from the normal flow of the document and it may cover (or be covered by) other content on the page.
Try float:left; with a clear:both; afterward...maybe.I put the left menu on float: left; and clear: all; took out the absolute positioning and it did no good. I took absolute positioning off the article div and it would only display in the upper left corner without absolute. Is anyone out there? I like precision-what is all this float stuff good for?
MelissaStart with this.

If you fixed and simplified both the HTML and the CSS you'd be a lot better off. You're way over styled.I don't understand the webvalidation stuff I read at that website-my server runs on unix and I try to avoid some newer code so it's browser compatable-thats all I know. The Li it wanted fixed wasn't li it was L1 and wasn't used for list purposes. The amphersands inside urls bit is alot of blahblahblah and whatever the point was it was lost on me, I did change a couple of the things it said and my whole page went ****ed so I guess I should just give up. I'm self taught anyway I dont even know the terms most of you use.
Thats funny microsoft hater...microsoft bug asks me for MS word disks ever since I changed a drive letter and now my annoyance is finally hate as well...

P.S. Why is this forum connected with the beginners site htmlgoodies?One thing I noticed right off were <li>s outside of either <ul> or <ol> blocks. The bottom line is that invalid HTML means as little to a browser as that validator output did to you.
