BTW, it makes sense to have all the pages that ar made into one (via includes) in the same coding format, so either make them all HTML or XHTML, it shouldn't hamper anything, but it will improve performance as it were

Thanks, and don't be embarrassed, sissy, it's not your fault it didn't display right!!
Hey, since I need to validate, anyone out there know how to make FrontPage quit overwriting the ampersand in my links? It keeps insisting on converting it from the html entity to & (kind of like this forum does).

Part of the problem may be this:
The links for your compliance are residing within a paragraph tag, while your CSS has been set up for those links directly in the div tag. As far as your html, the links think they reside in a plain paragraph tag, not within the div with ID of comply. Make sense?
a snippet of your CSS from above:
#comply a:link {
font-size: 80%;
color: #010742;
this CSS is telling links to behave a certain way when they are within an ID of comply. The links are not being used in that context, as they are within a paragraph tag.
You could probably do one of two things: remove them from the paragraph tag, or make a different CSS rule for them:
#comply p a:link {
font-size: 80%;
color: #010742;
You would need to do as above for all the different states of the links. The other part of the problem is to be sure your html validates.
However, keep in mind, that even if you have valid HTML and valid CSS, things may not always work as you expect. In this particular case, I don't think having everything valid will make a difference. Your page is behaving as you've intended in the html and CSS - you just haven't given it the "right" instructions yet.
How many times in our daily lives do we say something, and then have to back up a step and say -- well that's not what I meant. *S*

, let me know what happens with it, but as for now, I think I'll resort back to using Notepad for it.
