I wonder why your code is so messy... try linking your css into an external file (ask me if you don't know how). If you've seen in my tutorial I get only 1 line of code, not more... maybe you've messed with the "guts" of your code?

EDIT: If you still mess up zip your website and post it on the forum (considering it's less than 1MB file).

Edit 2: Yes you have to change your HTML if you want to put your menumaker files in a different folder.

Hi again I have attached the file for my website in zip file.
I have a few differant things in the webpage , which i s a banner and a logo, maybe its so messy as I am usig layers.
I am sure I am doing things right but obviousley I am not , its very frustrating, maybe it will jump out when U see the files , many thabnsk

**daveball** · 15 October 2006, 08:29 PM

Availor, how are you (and the guys in the Linux threads) inserting those scrolling boxes into the forum?
Is it possible to also do that with pictures?
