In reply to: Theme is a messI think you forgot a closing div somewhere (didn’t check, but it sure bears all the marks).
your content-div is part of yuor menu-left-div, so my guess would be hat you forgot to close the menu-left-div.

In reply to: Images not showing from posts on main page. HELP!I can see the same images when viewing the main page (your index.php, I suppose) and the individual posts, in FireFox that is.
Your sidebar however moves to the bottom in IE6.
Next, your images are much wider (700px) than the container they’re in (468px), so I imagine all kind of things can go wrong.

In reply to: How to widen a containerCan you please edit the question and delete the css again?
It can be downloaded from your site, so no need to post it here. It’s just annoying having to scroll down so far.
And if you must post code, please use pastebin.
TIA

In reply to: Content not floating Left, need CSS helpYes, That could well be the case.
It’s not WordPress specific btw, but (x)html.
Let’s take the first one:
Error Line 135, Column 151: document type does not allow element "a" here; assuming missing "li" start-tag …ifornia for “Race to the Top” Funds">Looking in your source, you find the following:
<ul> <div class="clearfloat featured-cats"> <a href="http://www.evolvingdoordesign.com/blog/?p=133" rel="bookmark" title="New York Should Run Alongside California for “Race to the Top” Funds"> <img alt="" src="http://www.evolvingdoordesign.com/blog/wp-content/themes/nyfera/scripts/timthumb.php?zc=1&w=105&h=85&src=/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Picture-51.png" /></a>the
<ul>means: ‘mark the start of an unnumbered list’Valid xhtml needs this markup:
<ul> <li></li> <li></li> <li></li> </ul>But you start a
<div>right after the<ul>(not sure if that is allowed, I think not), and right after that a<a>, which isn’t allowed either.These kind of mistakes need te be resolved, or otherwise you force Internet Exploder into quirks mode. Firefox is more forgiving.

In reply to: Creating forms and adding to the themeYou can do that all in one page template.
The way to go about is to create your form in a page template, also put the code in for processing the form (select by checking whether the form had been submitted or not – basic PHP), create a blank page and assign the page template to it.

In reply to: Make page title = article title?I have this in my header, see if it fits your needs.
<title> <?php if (is_home()) { echo bloginfo('name'); } elseif (is_404()) { echo '404 Not Found'; } elseif (is_category()) { echo 'Category:'; wp_title(''); } elseif (is_search()) { echo 'Search Results'; } elseif ( is_day() || is_month() || is_year() ) { echo 'Archives:'; wp_title(''); } else { echo wp_title(''); } ?> </title>Peter

In reply to: How to remove the comment number.Without wanting to search the entire tutorial (an URL to your site would be easier), I think you mean this one in functions.php
'#comment-' . get_comment_ID() );Just remove that.
