    I have been working on my site over at http://www.madisonlee.org for my upcoming daughter and was having an issue with a random picture showing on one of the sidebar blocks. Can anyone offer any help? I can see it only in firefox in this screenshot I have circled it. http://www.madisonlee.org/firefox.jpg
    And I have included the IE also http://www.madisonlee.org/explorer.jpg

    Is this a loading issue? A style sheet issue or?

    Any ideas please grab me on AIM at itzsniderwork or at itzsnider@gmail.com

    Thanks folks for a great program and your help in advanced.

    Took me a few moments to figure it out... but I found it.....hte text of your count down counter is wrapped in a ul/li tag set.... and your CSS has the following (snipped for brevity).

    #sidebar ul {
    background:#ffeeee url(img/sidenav_bottom.jpg) no-repeat bottom;
    }

    Because your count down text falls within the side bar... and it a UL tag pair... it gets the background image at the bottom.

    Solutions: remove the ul/li pairs and replace them with p tags instead (so it looks like this:
    <li id="importantdates">
    <p>100 days, 2 hours, 46 minutes, and 47 seconds left until until Madison comes!!</p>
    </li>

    or add a class designator:
    <li id="importantdates">
    <ul class='no-background'>
    <li>100 days, 2 hours, 46 minutes, and 47 seconds left until until Madison comes!!</li> </ul>
    </li>

    And then add the new class to the bottom of your CSS:
    .no-background-img { background-image: none; }
    (or you can make it transparent, what ever works.

    There's probably a couple of other ways too that I didn't think of.

    Look carefully .... it's the dark color band at the bottom of each ul section in the sidebar... it's an image.... you're thinking like I was... looking for a photo type image ... that's not what it is tho. If you look at it in Fx, you'll see some words appear over the dark color band... that was how I figured it out.
