Hello everyone;

I hope someone here can help me with this:

I have spent weeks redesigned my entire website at:
http://www.casino-magyck.com

My intentions were to keep continuity between the left table column with a menu and 125x125 ads and the right side table(s) with individual tables stacked on top of eachother. Where the last 125x125 ad appears in the left column is where the last table on the right also ends. Below that, I have a bottom table containing a text menu and some disclaimers.

Although it looks great on my laptop, my wife and my brothers computers... On a recent trip to my local library I decided to take a look at my site and was bummed when I noticed that while the left table column was in order, the right tables are totally out of sync.

I first noticed this when I looked at a "cached copy" of my site via Google and Yahoo. I also have friends who looked at my page have told me that It looks fine while others see a "tweeked" version.

I am not sure if this is a system or browser based issue. It could be in the CSS or the table layouts. I tried to contact the original coder of the CSS with a request of support, but have received a reply yet.

Would anyone reading this PLEASE go take a look ( http://www.casino-magyck.com ) and see if it looks OK on your system/browser.
If you are a coder or developer... Please offer me some advise on this matter.

Giving thanks in advance to those who read this.

I checked it in Firefox and IE, and in IE it's wonked.

First --> Correct your 188 coding errors. (Please note that one of them is that you have TWO opening tags.

Once you do that validae your CSS and correct any errors that you have there as well.

First remove the second htnl tag and see what happens while you work on correcting the rest of those errors.

-->REMOVE THIS RIGHT AWAY

Thanks... The double html was a typo via copy/paste

I have fixed that.

The markup validation is driving me nuts though.
I must take a break and let my brain rest...
I'll deal with it tomorrow.

Thanks again for your help.

There are so many errors that I don't have time to wade through all of the code, but one of the big things also is that fact that you are calling to your stylseheet wrong:

Needs to be:

Note that when using XHTML all tags that aren't closed in the normal manner get closed with a space and />

XHTML is written in all lower case, and all tags must be closed.

I am begging your assistance...

Please help me to correct a problem with the validation of my index page.
I cannot get stylin.css validated at: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

Please compare:
http://www.casino-magyck.com/index.html (Errors - Not Validated)
http://www.casino-magyck.com/index.htm (Validated)

To get index.htm validated, I replaced:

With:

Now... when I edit the head tags at index.html to validate css
I get this: http://www.casino-magyck.com/index1.html

It's all tweeked.

I am not asking you to fix this problem for me... but rather explain to me what is happening between these 3 pages.

Your wisdom will be greatly appreciated.

Anthony
