Good luck

Wow, how quick was that? absolutely fantastic, works a treat. Thank you.

What exactly does

<div class="clear"></div>

do?

Does it make sure that what comes next starts on a new line?

Take a look at the css file. That should say something like:

.clear {
   clear: both;
}

Definition

Image and text elements that appear in another element are called floating elements.

The clear property sets the sides of an element where other floating elements are not allowed.

Inherited: No

Another problem I'm afraid.

In firefox, opera & safari everything is fine. In internet explorer I am getting an annoying horizontal scroll bar. This is happening no matter what size windows you have, even full screen.

Please check it out and see if you can guess what it might be.

Good luck

mmmmm, thank you, I'm sure one of those methods will cure the problem.

I can't under why its started to happen though.
I haven't changed anything except the new links in the footer. Even removing them does not get rid of the scroll bar. Weird.

Don't bother why it happens. It's a stupid IE bug. One of many.

Have fun

aarrgghhh, I tried a few variations and the damn bar is still there.

Now I'm figuring, its an I.E problem (like you said) and not mine. More pressing things to get on with at the momment.

Do a bit of code cleaning as well.....
You have some unclosed tags like the missing </p> for the following....

<p><strong>9</strong> posts and <strong>1</strong> comments from <strong>29/03/08</strong> to <strong>01/04/08</strong>. Total number of words in all posts is <strong>1,836</strong> and the total number of views is <strong>141</strong>.<!-- My above footer skin container end -->

No </ul> ....

<ul> <li>Why is it that people say they &quot;slept like a baby&quot; when babies wake up every two hours? </li> <li>If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing? </li> <li>Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat?</li> <p class="bMore">

etc etc

Thank you, I have done a bit of tidying up, mainly by editing posts markup. Work is easier now I have tinymce installed.

The opening <p> you referred to was being put there by the mini stats pluggin (although I couldn't find it in the pluggin file) or maybe the container somehow, I will look into this.

I have removed the widget that was creaing that line

<p><strong>9</strong> posts and <strong>1</strong> comments from <strong>29/03/08</strong> to <strong>01/04/08</strong>. Total number of words in all posts is <strong>1,836</strong>and the total number of views is <strong>141</strong> 

and the <p> has disapeared and so has the horizontal scroll bar.

This is the area I need to look at me thinks!
