yeah i love the layout.. unless there is one like it. though i dont know where to get one from... ^^ and yeah.. my friend told me to do a validation check.. so much crap that i dont understand.. lol

stuff like

Line 142, Column 184: end tag for element "DIV" which is not open.

…onMouseout="dynamichide(event)"></div>')

✉

The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original problem.

>.<


this is what i used to check

that 1 header, plus horizontal navigation, plus 2 column is pretty generic and I'm sure you can find one easy from these 2 links

I'm using one from here also. If you build your site off any of these layouts your site layout shouldnt break as easy. They are reasonibly plain yet you can still add on it easy enough. Once you start adding alot of content in your code can get messy fast so finding errors to correct can be difficult.

Dont worry too much you do what most people do, just paste a whole lot of code in there. But the proper way is to start from scratch and correct any mistakes before adding more things in.

Heres how i would do it and suggest you do it

1. pick a template you like, download it and load it on your computer
2. change any colors / fonts / margins in the css file (You can always modify later if needed or if you change your mind)
3. add navigation in there and test it out.
4. add your ajax functions and any other javascript and test it out
5. load your lightbox gallery in.

you should check for any errors during each stage/when you add new things in. I hope this helps abit if you dont understand fully dont worry not everyone does. I still get confused my self about what CSS is actually doing. The only way you will pick it up is if you keep learning. I've only started working with CSS myself and javascript in the last 4 months on and off of course. I've done javascript before a few years back but I dont remember lol so that dont count. Any way you get the points keep at it.

As a last resort if you really need to get a move on building your site which is understandable and get a solid layout builted to use instead of building one from scratch I can help. it shouldnt take too long, on the other hand if you want to build it your self and try and learn along the way thats cool too.

Hey thanks for the help
I got one of the templates.. and yeh fully changed it... seeing how they were so wide lol..
Looks good now

The stupid lightbox still doesnt work properly though.. you know whats funny.

If you click on modelling photo under Gallery it shows it in the div box right.. and then you click on the photo .. the lightbox breaks.. and then if you click on modelling photo again... and click on the photo. it loads properly.. thats so wierd >.<

i dont know what to do with that.
