| Well, I had most of it backed up (came as a surprise to me) so I recovered a good chunk of it. But does anyone know if the "position:absolute;" in my CSS could be the problem with firefox? I guess I was told once that that was a problem, what alternatives are there? |

Validate the site, fix the problems and it FireFox will probably read it fine:

The site looks better today then yesterday tho. |

| Ok, I think that the code is valid now. Can someone check it out for me on firefox (I can't seem to get it working on my computer think my nortan internet securtity blocked it, don't have time to fix that right now.)? |

@Phate: ahh, didn't see that
@assassin: Still one error, the 'Assassin Homepage' is over the text. There is one more validation to do:
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//assassin.cjb.cc/
Add this in the very first beginning of your html files:
| Code: |
| <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1"> |

| I promise this is the last time that I'll ask about this site unless I change the format at some point, I threw in some br tags to try to get that text out of the way of the big bad welcome text and I want to know if it's working on ALL browsers now. Thanks for the help, you guys are great. |

| finally got firefox working on my puter and (thanx to you're snap shot) I was able to fix the page. I don't understand why firefox views the site differently than IE. Isn't a pixel a pixel? whatever, it's fixed now and I don't think I'll have to many problems in the future with it (hopefully) thank you guys so much. |

| Yeah now it works. The problem is that IE don't follow the W3C standars for webprogramming like FireFox does. If you program a code correctly, you can be sure that FireFox reads the site perfectly, but you will probably fix some things to get IE to read it as you want. Its a big problem. |
