I need a bit of help.

I have basic html and css knowledge but I never get it to work in all of the basic browsers. I need something that is more about showing than reading because It's not helping.

Re: I need a bit of help.

html / css cross browser is no easy task. IE interprets the box model differently than other browsers, which is why you have to impliment box model hacks.

Design for Firefox / opera, and then hack for ie.

Also: What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

Coming up with a multi-entertianment website with a good chance to fail.
It's called exfrose.org and I haven't bought hosting or a domain yet. It pretty much a social "revenge of the nerds" type of site.

You can always go the easy route and use flash.

Re: I need a bit of help.

I suggest against that. Flash can not get indexed in search engines. Simply put, you wont get any search engine traffic, which will in turn cause your site to fail unless the site is very well done and gets a lot of back links.

The easy route would be to use tables to control the look of your layout. I normally advise against it but if it is one of your first websites then use tables. CSS / xhtml may be a bit difficult for you to grasp.

I know, it is by far the least desireablest. I would say.
