 * I am having a problem displaying posts comments properly on my client blog. I’ve
   revised comments.php and the new theme related css files but can’t seem to find
   what is exactly wrong
 * So can someone please help me and tell me what exactly I am doing wrong here?
 * Here is a link to a post on my client blog showing the comments display problem
   [http://bit.ly/hZeoV4](http://bit.ly/hZeoV4)
 * As you will see everything is displayed correctly even the comment ‘form’, while
   the thing displayed wrong are the comments
 * Thanks in advance for your time

 * Start by sorting out the [markup errors](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.downloadpulse.com%2Ffeatured-downloads%2Ffree-proxy-switcher-protect-your-ip-address-and-surf-anonymously).

 * Hi esmi,
 * Thanks a lot for your help and time. Even though I strongly believe that those
   errors have nothing to do with the comments display problem because they are 
   not even close to the comments area, I’ve validated the website and resolved 
   most of the errors. The remaining errors are basically not related to the client
   custom theme, so I don’t have access to solve them.
 * Any help / new ideas on how to rectify this problem will be highly appreciated…
 * Thanks in advance for your time

 * Your immediate issue may be this:
 * .comment { width:504px; border-top:1px dotted #000; margin-left:40px; margin-
   top:7px;** height:34px;**}
 * Height seems to be restricted to 34px. Remove that, and the next error(s) should
   reveal itself rather quickly.
