Could someone have a look at:

In Internet Explorer 6, it appears fine, but in Netscape 7, it doesn't.
I thought that CSS was compatible in Netscape 7 ... was I incorrect???
Thanks

Yeah, I felt like that a few times ... "to hell with CSS, bring back tables".
But now I look at it (no comments about the design ... Tyla ;) ) it's come out as I would like it to, which made it all worth while ... plus, I tried that site tester thing on echoecho.com which said my site loading times were perfect :).

Looks good in Mozilla 1.2.1 and IE6 for me.
I've been fiddling around with CSS for the past few weeks. I've had the same three column layout all the way through, but had to rewrite the stylesheet about five times. It looked good, but it completely collapsed in a small window - very unprofessional, even for an amateur. I was about to give up and use some tables when I found this site: www.saila.com/usage/layouts/
min-width has saved my life :)

Would you mind having a quick look to see if it looks inline for you???

However, I was given a screen shot of what someone else was seeing, which doesn't see quite right: http://tomislav.echoechoplus.com/images/test4.gif
Thanks for all the help you've given me with this.
Oh, and congratulations on the imminent arrival of your son.

Looking good (in the CSS sense not design sense!;)) Looks fine in IE6 and NS6.22. You'll always hav some problems between the two browsers, until they finally get it together and go with compliancy and not their own agendas. Keep playing, you'll soon know what does what and where.

Actually, on closer look, it appears as though the links line up correctly, and it is infact the logo at the top and the 'Main' area which are positioning lower than intended.
Would this have someting to do with me refering to the Logo and Main areas with '

Well, after a little alterting. I've managed to get everything as I'd like it ... appart from the position, again in Netscape, the links are just a bit out of line compaired to Internet Explorer.
Oh, and just to add, both browsers appear to be respecting their z-index positions as required.
Cheers for all that Tyla.
I had a play about with the a.whatever:link stuff, but ending up with my links being chucked around everywhere, so rather than having an indevidulal:
a.whatever:link
a.whatever:hover
a.whatever:viseted
... for every link, I thought I'd just have a.whatever to represent all the subs to Links, 'hover', 'viseted' etc. Is that acceptable??
If you take a look at http://www.chrisjhaig.co.uk/GTA/ (the CSS file is called 'Style_Sheet.css') you'll see the site I'm playing about with. In Internet Explorer, it all looks ok to me. you'll see the links line up within each box, and the white background is present when required. However, in Netscape, you'll notice the links and the white backgrounds line up together correctly, but not within their box, but rather over the top line of the box it's suppose to be in and the bottom of the box above.
Like you said "You just haven't quite got it sorted out yet...", so no doubt you may see a simple mistake regarding my code, but it's a mistake I can't see, and am lost as to why the position is incorrect in such a way on the two different browsers?

Customizing links are easy. You just haven't quite got it sorted out yet...
standard link declarations = a:link, a:visited & a:hover
on top of this you can have a.anythingyouwant:link, a.anythingyouwant:visited & a.anythingyouwant:hover and just decaler the class as "anythingyouwant" in the so for side menu you could have:
a.sidenav:link
a.sidenav:hover
a.sidenav:visited
and delare different styles for these as opposed to your normal a:link... I hope this is making sense.

Techdev @ netscape are excellent for CSS problems in NS, but as I mentioned before, Gekko is one of the most compliant CSS engines out there along with Opera. If it's not going to well in NS7 your doing something wrong. I'll have a dig about and see what i can find.

, Netscape will place the link in the correct position.
If your trying to class links it should be a.menu:link / a.menu:visited and in your it should be xxx
NS7 is one of the most CSS compliant browsers out there, if it's not working, then you have done something seriously wrong.

Thanks for your help so far.
It now looks better in Netscape, in that the links now don't just appear at the bottom. They do, however, appear in the wrong place. Rather than being in the middle of the boxes, they are over the top line ... and I can't see why.
I've got rid of the underscores, changed the big P's and A's to little ones, and removed the numbers from the names.
Any ideas???
