Could you post a more complete bit of code? Or give us a link? That would help.

But to take a guess you might have missed out a closing tag somewhere?

Yes ... the complete code or link would be best.

I didn't really take a long look, but intead of the the ton of periods, how about this?

Code: Select all

<div class="divider"></div>

<style type="text/css">
  .divider {
    height: 1px;
    border-top: 1px dotted #000;
  }
</style>

Well I couldn't say for sure. The code is such a mess, I can't really read it.

But it might have something to do with empty P tags ""

Also you should do as Ryan said and make a class instead of having all those periods in the code.

I have look at the code, and it is hell.

I dont like to put users down.

I dont understand way you have used thext

Also I found this in the code.

<body id="main_body"> I dont understand way you have use
the body sector with a id tag.

Also you have used way to many IDS, Try replacing the
ID with Class..

Also you have nested the head tag with the meta.

Please try some of what I have said, and can you let my know
your result.

Start by running HTML Tidy on your code, to make it human-readable. Then we can talk

Oh, and ditch any empty paragraphs.
