Greetings CSS enthusiasts,

I am struggling with some problems with a site I am building for a friend. I
found some instructions for doing rollover button navigation using images
that have the normal, off state plus the hover state combined in one
graphic. The lower half of the graphic is supposed to be revealed on
mouseover. I'm trying to avoid the flicker effect that I've encountered in
the past. Unfortunately, in my case the image is disappearing entirely
rather than showing the lower part of it on mouseover. I didn't use this
method with the actual nav buttons so don't worry about those. I decided to
try them on the "photo circle" nav in the burgundy are of the page. Here's
the url: http://quiglitzin.com/index.php. Any idea about what I'm doing
wrong here? I assume it has to do with the fact that I'm using absolute
positioning rather than the float left that was used in the example I was
following.

 

The photo circle rollovers are the biggest problem I'm having with the page
but there are a few other problems I'm that I'd love help with, if possible:

 

1.       There is a horizontal break at the top of the page (below the main
navigation) where the background is showing through. It's not supposed to be
like that.

2.       The html text throughout the site appears to be smaller than the 12
px I set it too and it is also serifed rather sans serif. The only thing
that looks right about the text is the color. I'm really mystified by the
fact that one style is taking hold but not the others that I set up for it.
I think this only happens in the more recent IE and Firefox browsers and I
think it started when I set the site up with Cushy CMS so that my friend
will be able to easily make updates to the site on her own.

 

Thanks for taking a look at these issues!

- Sara
