Help on Firefox glitch in site built with EW - 4/25/2007 15:24:26   
I've just finished this little site: http://www.chicamoose.com. It looks great in IE and Opera, but in Firefox I loose my wrapper behind my text.

Can anyone advise me what I'm doing wrong on this? Thanks!

Looks ok to me in FF. However, the page is centered in FF and not in IE. You do have no DOC TYPE declaration. In your footer you didn't close the </p>. There is a closing </div> After the html tag....

How did you manage to set up a site using EW and not have a Doctype? Did you take it off?

You need to put it back on and then run your page through the HTML validator and fix any errors.

http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicamoose.com%2F

You also have errors in your css

BODY {
background-color : #13878c;
margin-top : 0;
margin-left : 0;
font-family : Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font:10pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

}
}

and

#wrapper a {color:#8d922b; text-decoration:none; }
{
text-decoration: none; }


I suggest you run that through the css checker once you've fixed it as well.

There might be a #wrapper code in the style sheet but I don't see a <div ID="wrapper"> in the HTML. What's not there in the first place you can't lose... :)

The problem with the background vanishing is

#wrapper p get rid of the float:left

Not the home page, try one of the others.

Thank! I didn't realize there was a checker. This is my first attempt with Expression. I appreciate the feedback.
