I've used a CSS template and it seems to work great in Safari, but does not work in Firefox.
The site address is: help-honduras.net
I believe the error has to do with 1 or more of the following issues.

The line:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Or:
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

A clue is the UTF-8 error I received, when I put it through a check.

Again...I'm a rookie, so if you could please keep it simple...I might be able to figure it out.

Thanks!

This needs to be a .css not .htm http://help-honduras.net/002new.htm

<link href="http://help-honduras.net/002new.htm" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<link href="http://help-honduras.net/002new.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Dont just change the code you have to change the actual file extension as well.

Also delete whatevers in the middle of this

Dang...you made that seem easy. That did it. I've been messing with it for about 8 hours. Many thanks!

I'd like to add that the question mark was probably a copyright symbol and that should remain there so I suggest you use © or just (c).
