Hi,

I'm working on my website:

http://www.namos.ca

When I restore the web page down to a smaller screen size, the links at the top block out the text below. In my previous thread sticks464 suggested I get rid of the table - which is what I would like to do. However, I have not been able to find a way to position the text properly without using a table.

Thanks!!

To do a proper page layout without using the outdated table tags you will have to use div tags and CSS. Makes for a much nicer layout and more control over changes you might find you have to make to more than one page.

Are you using a specific web editor? You are using a XHTML 1.0 Strict DocType and you MUST code your HTML to it or change DocType to one that is more lax in its markup. Font tags are not to be used with present DocType.

Document can not be checked because the editor you are using is inserting invalid HTML characters: The apostrophe in "NAMOS BC�s"

That's what I thought I had to do. I'm using notepad as my text editor. It has been over 10 years since I programmed a website - so it is taking me a bit of time to recollect the little details. CSS was just starting to come out in 1996 when I was doing this stuff. It is hard to break old habits.
