    I edited my template, and it looks great when I use Dreamweavers "preview in" function and preview it in both firefox and internet explorer. However, when I actually upload it the site comes out funny looking. In internet explorer looks ok, but in firefox the navi bar is staggered?

    Also, both sites have the problem of the content being pushed down a few inches..which causes the site to just look weird. Scroll down to see that her legs get cut off.
    Are all these problems due to netfirms free hosting? I think its ad supported, but I wonder if my template is hiding the ad and therefore causing the content to be bumped down?

    Who knows, Im clueless on these matters.
    Heres the site:
    www.ankletattoodesigns.com

    EDIT: And sometimes in firefox all my text turns black when it should all be white...again whyyy?

    Thanks!

    People just never learn - NOTHING IS FOR FREE -
    look at the code from your FREE WEB SERVER
    Notice anything that comes from your FREE Service
    Get over it or Pay. Simple solution.

    I have no problem paying or anything at all, but I wanted to use a free host to figure it out so once its all fixed then I can pay to get it hosted for real. Are you saying all my problems will go away as soon as I pay for real hosting?

    Do you own Dreamweaver or did you borrow it with maybe a hack. The reason I ask, is because it is not cheap. So if you own it, you would understand it and how to code, and you could then look at the code from your web and see that your Host applied their own code on top of your code to display their ads. I am amazed by peolpe today and their inabillity to reason simple things out. Everyone wants and wants and wants and never thinks.
    Yes to your answer. Pay for a host or find one which does not add to your code and Your problem will go away.
    Did you even look at the code you downloaded from FWT and the code I got right from your web site posted here? I posted the start code right down to the part <!-- end banner code -->

    Dreamweaver is free for me, Im a computer science student and we get a bunch of programs included in our tuition. I also understand how to code and I can see that the code was added by netfirms. I even stated that I understood that it was ad-supported in my first post. I just wasn't sure if it was specifically the ad code that you posted that was causing the problem or perhaps it was another problem. The reason I wondered is because it looks fine in internet explorer. Only in firefox does the top navibar become staggered.

    I fail to see your frustration over all of this, or why you see the need to lash out at others. Perhaps the internet is serious business after all.
