Rose,
I got your message yesterday about my fonts being large, really large. I changed the font size in one area of the template for the title but nothing changes for the posts or the sidebar when I change those fonts.

In IE my blog looks terrible and I haven't figured out a way around that even with suggestions from Peter and Chuck, their blogs do the same thing with the sidebar dropping to the bottom. I can't even login to blogger on IE because of the nav bar being in the way of the header.

Help!! lol

Ouch sherrykins icon_biggrin.gif

What did you do to your blog lol ... j/k

After going through each CSS attribute then tags I cam across this little piece of code!!!!


Code:

<div id="header">
<h5 id="blog-title">
Helpful Resources for New Bloggers
</h5<p><center><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/7928/2145/1600/691762/IMG_5454.jpg">
  <img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/7928/2145/400/341595/IMG_5454.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="400" height="255" /></a></center></p>
<center><p id="description">Blogger Resources providing helpful tips and step-by-step instructions for the new blogger and blogger wannabe.</p></center>
  </p> 


Now Look at line 4 notice the closing < /h5 tag!

You didn't close it completly! your missing the last bracket " > "


So your code should be
Code:
<h5 id="blog-title">
Helpful Resources for New Bloggers
</h5>



That should fix your error!

Thanks Shawn,
I closed the tag, does the title look any better?

I also went into the #Blog-title where the margin,padding, border, font area is, I reduced the font size there from 200% down to 125% and that made a big difference from yesterday. Do I still need to go smaller for the title in your opinion?

You have been a big help to me, thanks for your time.

  </p> 
</div>
<div id="content">


I checked it in firefox as well and it shows its still open in there as well!

Be sure to close this tag
Code:
</h5
your missing the closing bracket ' > ' just before the < p >

It should be

Code:
</h5>



Be sure that when you close the tag you hit save template!

Shawn
