Header heading nowhere fast...
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone out there might make sence of why a header is not appering on one of my sites.
The site is www.profitbump.com
Iv been stering at the code for hours but im blind to the problem.
The header is named index_01.jpg , you'll find it near the top.
<td background="images/index_01.jpg" height="142" width="758" valign="top"> </td>If anyone would be so kind, i would appreciate it
By the way, Happy Christmas soon

The problem is a few lines up with this bit of code:
<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="758>You're missing a quote after the width.

If you use a colour coded editor of some kind, such as notepad++, it colours everything nicely for you, and as the code is in colour, it highlights problems and makes them easier to see.
An issue like that would show the next line in purple (by default) showing that it's not correctly coded html.

Ya, I noticed the error by viewing the source in Firefox. It made the line with the graphic red, and the syntax highlighting was all messed up all the way back to the missing quote.

Oh my god. Thanks so much.
I cant believe i didnt see it. I guess thats what i get for looking at the screen to much.
I use PSpad which seems to be a good editor. Has all the colours greg mentioned. Ill have to check out notepad++ to see if its worth changing to that one.
Anyway, thanks again and Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it

You should (usually) stick to what you are comfortable with and used to, but change can sometimes be for the better.
I never used PSpad, so cannot advise if switching would be beneficial, but Notepad++ is great, with some excellent plugins.
And, Merry Christmas to you too (although a tad early yet
)

I can't tell you how many times I left out a parenthesis (mostly this), a quote, a semi-colon, or some other character which broke an entire page...
I use EditPlus which color codes, with support for HTML. PHP and CSS (probably more, but that is what I use it for)
Other groovy features include "find in files" and one click preview -
It's free to try, I keep meaning to register it, but I am on day 223 of the 30 day trial, the only nag is one popup when it starts...
