Just another glimpse at your css...
I notice several instances of color names preceeded by pound signs...
color: #blue;
color: #pink;
color: #green;
color: #brown;As far as I know, whenever referring to colors by the built-in names like that, you never put the "#" (only if referring by hexadecimal number, like #FF0000). Unless that was intentional and meant as a temp comment-like thing that you didn't mean to work. :)
(unless it does work in your browser...but doesn't for me -- Safari 3 mac at the moment...doesn't look standard to me)http://reference.sitepoint.com/c…

Kind of in the same boat....I know table-based layout html inside and out...still grappling with css-based layout. Taking up reading/learning the topic anew lately....still in that black art stage, but getting clearer as I see the same stuff mentioned over and over. Though trying to sort out what is the "REAL" correct methods when you read conflicting techniques, or trying to figure out which is the older "so last week" methods. :) (like all the ways to clear floats....)more reference you may like (if you can sort thru it)...
- and you should almost never use the named selectors, stick to the hex with the pound.NONEIS
