And of course it looks even different in Firefox. You still have the borders but your nav is not brown and some of the other things you mentioned.

When I checked your style sheet your navbar is set to pink and your H1 tag is set to bold so I see why it's showing that way. Are you sure you re-uploaded your style sheet?

Oh and I didn't respond to the include comment. You should definitely not have anything in your include files but your code. Is SBI! telling you this or is Komposer asking you to add the <head>?

Don't I feel like an idiot!!!!! I was not re-uploading the style sheet. I thought as long as I saved it to my files, the changes would automatically stick. Now, it looks the way it should in the SBI! preview.

As for the includes, I'm getting the error from Kompozer. It won't let me save the file without a <head> tag.

Thanks so much for all your help Lisa. I really appreciate it.

GRRRRREAT! Looks nice!

For your includes, I'd just open them up in Notepad or another basic text editor and save them because you definitely cannot upload any include files to SBI! with the extra code. It could screw things up since you already have a <head> tag.

West/Sonya, you may like this tip. As you build your pages in Kompozer, you may want to preview them before uploading (I know I preview a gazillion times before uploading them), but it's a pain to go all the way through SBI to preview. Rohit from SBI created a cool widget that allows you to preview everything with one click (both in firefox and explorer) if you have both. I'm not an affiliate or anything like that, just a recommedation for anyone who cannot preview without uploading to sitebuilder. Super little program.

it's 20 bucks I think. You'll thank me later :-)

Thanks Rohan. I've been reading a lot about that in the SBI forum. Seems like everyone loves it. I didn't know it was that cheap though. You can't beat that price!

Yup, can't beat the price. Sweetest thing is, I can preview changes to my includes and css without uploading them to sitebuilder. I'm now learning css so it's cool for me to open my css file in notepad, make a change, then hit preview to see exactly what it will look like before I upload the new css file or new includes.

Notepad2 does pretty much the same thing...and it's free.

This is the second thread I've mentioned this program, I'm not connected with it or its creator in any way, I just think its a brilliantly simple piece of software.
