    I just went to my site and found that 3 links in my header don’t work. The only thing that I have changed today is, I moved WP from its own directory to the root dir. I don’t understand how that would effect only 3 links. I have checked my header.php file, and all links are coded the same.

    My link is: http://sidneysuccess.com

    You need to validate.

    What does this have to do with the links not working? When I run that validator, most of the code errors it finds are actually in place.
    The links were working before, without this validate.

    Well, it might have nothing to do with it.

    On the other hand, it might explain why your links work in IE but not in firefox, at least for me.

    It might also explain why your sidebar moves to the bottom and loses most formatting in IE but not in FF.

    Thanks Adam, I’m trying to figure out all these coding errors. Most of the errors reported are not even present, at least as far as I see(which doesn’t speak for much).

    I have not found one that pertains to the links. If someone looks at my page source, do you think you might see the problem?

    If the validator sees them, they are, indeed, there.

    The validator can have cascading errors. You might find that fixing one error will cause several to disappear. But at least some of the errors will really be there.

    And although there aren’t coding errors in your links, this whole “cascading errors” principle might explain why an error elsewhere would screw up your links.
