I'm quite new to CSS / HTML, and can't find the cause of this little bugger. I want it gone, so that the banner and the nav bar touch each other. Any help is greatly appreciated!!
Here is the code for the site. I took out some of the irrelevant code.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<!-- *****CSS CODE START*****-->
<style type="text/css">
#container
{
margin: 0 auto;
width: 900px;
background: #fff;
}
#header
{
margin-top: 0px;
}
#header h1 { margin: 0; }
#navigation
{
float: left;
width: 900px;
background: #333;
}
#navigation ul
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
#navigation ul li
{
list-style-type: none;
display: inline;
}
#navigation li a
{
display: block;
float: left;
padding: 5px 10px;
color: #fff;
text-decoration: none;
border-right: 1px solid #fff;
}
#navigation li a:hover { background: #383; }
#content-container
{
float: left;
width: 900px;
background: #fff url(/wp-content/uploads/layout-two-fixed-background.gif) repeat-y 100% 0;
}
#content
{
clear: left;
float: left;
width: 619px;
height: 720px;
padding: 10px 0;
margin: 0 0 0 0px;
display: inline;
overflow: auto;
}
#content h2 { margin: 0; color: #003D5D; padding:10px; }
#contentBody
{
padding:10px;
font-size:22px;
}
#aside
{
float: right;
width: 280px;
padding: 20px 0;
margin: 0 0px 0 0;
display: inline;
background: #cccccc;
height: 700px;
border-left: 1px solid #333 ;
}
#aside h3 { margin: 0 20px; color: #003D5D; font-family: Times New Roman; }
#asideText { margin: 0 20px; font-family: Times New Roman;}
#footer
{
clear: both;
background: #ccc;
text-align: right;
padding: 5px;
height: 1%;
border-top: 1px solid #333 ;
}
</style>
