Badly nested tags

Hello folks,

I was wondering if you could recommend a way that I can check my "Crazily" complex tag nesting. I've made up a page which looks just fine in FireFox but my nesting has obviously gone a little stray cause it loses CSS styles in IE after the complex menu.

An example is here

I assume FireFox is taking a guess at what it should look like, and getting it right, but IE can't be bothered.

I've looked through the tag nesting several times and can't spot where the nesting has gone astray.

Thanks for any and all help
Jiggy

 
YEah, I suppose that was the obvious answer, (Some times I amaze myself at my own stupidity). I didn't realise that it gave a better help descriptions than DW's own Validator.

Thanks very much


p.s. I think Napolion Dynamite is an ace film too!

DW is a commercial app, designed to make webpages (that generally suck), w3c is dedicated to the standards and recomendations. That is who and what they are.

Ace and triple ace, in fact.

If you use Firefox or Mozilla there is a very useful Web Developer toolbar here:

It contains immediate links to CSS and HTML validators as well as lots of other useful features
