Install Firefox or Opera to see how badly broken your css really is. The site is unusable.

A quick thing I noticed is that the menu bar is sitting in from of the logo in IE7 - see attached.

Re: firefox - thanks for pointing this out, i had some comments regarding this on another forum so is definately something i need to resolve asap, any suggestions why the layout is having so many problems with firefox, and also IE7. So far i have only tested in IE6 but obvioulsy need to look at other browsers too.

Hi Jonathan,
CSS layout issues across the different browsers is well documented on the internet.
It would be a long post here to go through them all for you.
You could have a look at

an excellent CSS 'bug' resource with links to many other resources and online CSS layout tutorials.

Is your design based on the 'Executive' theme? If so, try changing this bit in the 'Actinic Stylesheet' layout:

	.page_header_content	{
		width: 762px;
		text-align: left;
		height: 63px;
		}

Change the 'height' to be the same as the height of your logo image.

Yes i am using executive and that has worked a treat, thanks very much.

Hi all many thanks for all our comments.

I believe i have now resolved the firefox issue, although have not had a chance to fully test this yet. Hopefully the problem should also now be resolved in IE7 as well but need to check that tonight.

Currenlty have a couple of sections where the products are being forced below the sidebars (kitchen tools & gadgets and serving tools) although this should just be a case of me needing to play around with image size and descritpion lengths so that the table fits in where it should do.

As always grateful for your comments.

Kind Regards
