Tabless Where did I go wrong?

Ok so as I would like to point out first this is not xuxa portfollio. I am making him one but this will not be it. I was just using this for the purpose of learning tabless coding.

Secondly check this out:

I deffinately screwed up the coding.

Here is the link to the style sheet:

In case this helps, here is what it looks like in dreamweaver:

Can anyone help me solve this

Thanks in advance

For a start you do not need a div called container, you haven't even used this div in the html or put any properties for it in your css.

Why have you specified a pt for width for the wrapper? pt is generally used for print, px for web. You also have pt throughout your css, px is the best way to represent sizing, and em for text. Also, if you are using 0 (zero) as a size then you shouldn't follow the 0 with a unit like pt, px etc.

You have used position:fixed in almost everything, this could be a problem, also consider using floats for the inner content modules.

Container and wrapper are generally used for the same thing. It's either one or the other, don't use both. I suggest instead of 'margin: 0px;' on every element you use this code:

That will remove the default padding on all elements.

I don't understand why you have position: relative, or absolute on every element. It's not needed. I'd start off by removing all the position: whatever; and go from there.

position:absolute throws the element out of the document flow, try relative instead.

I see a lot of Dreamweaver code... It's best to use code view. As Julian said...Relative throws it out of the flow, and so does Fixed. It might look good in Dreamweaver, but every browser reads position: different...if you do it right it will all work in all browsers.

Ok so I attempted to make everything on the right relative and everything on the left floated and static. Is this better?

It looks fine in IE but what else can I do to improve the looks of it? Is the coding right? I know my stylesheet could use some cleaning up. Is the xhtml semantics correct?

Thanks for all your help!

Sorry for bump! My reasoning is I have to apply to university within the next 2 days and submit a portfollio and I really want to have a coded website down.

Thanks for everyones help again

Try validating your code such as your css for example it shows u having an error
