Ok, I'm using a design for my website. It's worked just fine forever, but suddenly, you can't see the navigation links :s

The top bar, when you mouse-over, it's supposed to drop-down a menu, and it does, but it drops behind the other layer :eek:
Why would it do that all of a sudden #1, #2, how would I fix it?

Not sure but it looks like you hijacked the Macromedia theme?

That's a default template from Dreamweaver MX 2004.

Yeah, I'm having one designed with FLASH, but it's taking a really long time... :\
It's a good servicable design at least ^^

What I see is that the phrases "Plans starting at..." is too big to fit within the grey area.

None of the links go anywhere, be forewarned.

I'm working on getting rid of the JS for the rollover images to use CSS, but I'm having some problems...

What types of problems? This has recently become a specialty of mine, as the last few sites have required this sort of coding. I have every IE hack you might need to complete the job memorized :)

Well, seeing as I like to conform to w3c.org standereds, I don't use IE hacks.

Also, I don't know CSS, so I'm having to learn as I design XD

Well, hacks is the wrong word, since we're talking about using W3C standard CSS markup, but using very specific markup that IE will recognize, since it is the single dumbest browser in current release. We're talking about tricks like declaring list items as inline element and the links they contain as floated block elements - things like that. Perfectly valid, but necessary to make IE understand what you want it to do.

But yes, learning the fundamentals of CSS is the best place to start. Again, if you're stuck on a particular item, just ask :)
