True, but every now and again I do fixed a handful of W3C errors. Which may take some time to fix them all, since I currently have nearly 100 pages to maintain (and its still growing a page or two at a time), most of which are in the D programming section while the rest in my Art site. Just wish I could figure out how to move my sytlesheet out and have my webpages still work, but somehow my black background is always turning purple.

Also, I do try my best to test every new page against both MS IE 6.x and the FoxFire v1.xx browsers, but I think I just plain missed doing that this time around with the Diva Project. I must have gotten a little burned out from spending too many midnights working on it, plus drawing the special artwork of Dyriia, and coming up with the kool name for the project, "Diva" (which in v0.1 it was called "ArgMesher" originally, but I thought that name was too long...plus it wasn't creative enough for my taste).

What exactly did you mean by "it has been fixed"?  Look:

- there are still _lots_ of validation errors
- there isn't even a DOCTYPE declaration - this is the first step, as you should know if you've ever tried validating
- the aforementioned fault in the appearance is still there in all its glory

Or have you simply forgotten to upload the "fixed" version?

Stewart your timing couldn't be any better...<g>

After I saw Derek Parnel post, I went in and edited the styleshheet more, then did some work in the main HTML.

1. - there are still _lots_ of validation errors
Yes, there are still a number errors according to W3C's HTML checker, but I'm
not going to have a heary-attack worrying about it at the moment...since both
IE6 and FoxFire view things just fine.

2. - there isn't even a DOCTYPE declaration - this is the first step, as
you should know if you've ever tried validating
Yep, I commented it in when I was playing around fixing things and didn't
uncomment back. (It's now uncommented, tho I'm still not up to the W3C standard
for a HTML 4.0 Transitional document...anyway a person has to have goals to
shoot for you know. <g>).

3. - the aforementioned fault in the appearance is still there in all its glory You're right yet again, I re-broke it / got caught not re-testing it against the FireFox browser, but the good news is, that it's now been re-fixed.
