Messed up Web Site

Hi Web People,

I'm trying to fix the mess I've done with my web site but I'm really going insane here!

I used http://validator.w3.org/ but can't get my head around it...

In particular is this page that bothers me http://www.clorinde.org/clorinde/works.htm

Why the borders around the pictures (inside layers) are all over the place?
Can I fix it or I just should get rid of them?

Please, help me if you are one of those internet genious...

Re: Messed up Web Site

From first glance here is what I can tell.

1) if you want the images contained within the image holding divs you can set overflow hidden on the divs.

2) What was that coded with because it looks scary

Hope that helps.

Mmmh... no, I don't get it.


IE displays everything fine but the other ones seem to have problems especially with those damned borders that I used around the layers.

Now.

Are you able to find what's wrong with it and tell me how to replace the wrong code or make an example so an ignorant like me would be able to figure it out or you think I'm hopless?


Thanks for your patience!

Re: Messed up Web Site

heres what i recommend, go through your html/css file and put
overflow: hidden;
everywhere there is a
border:1px ridge #808080;

or if you have a replace tool, replace
border:1px ridge #808080;
with
border:1px ridge #808080; overflow: hidden;

that will make it look better (not a true fix)'

you may also want to fool with margins...
heres a page with css data if that helps

Re: Messed up Web Site

Right, thanks a lot.

Also, do you know any simple validators for "dummies" so I could try to sort this out?

Cheers!
