Critique CSS layout (1st go - fingers crossed)

I've been using CSS for a while, however always using tables for the layout.

This is my first go using a CSS only layout. After many versions (about 7 of
them) this is the final version that I would like critiqued.

I have tested on the following Win browsers: IE6, NS6 & Mozilla Firefox 1.0.

Thanks,

Helen

But think of what you have learned!

Works great in that ancient Mac browser IE5.5. And MacMozilla 1.2.1. And
it looks lovely in MacLynx.

And it even validates.

I would love to critique the site, but I can never get to any of you
www/limelightstudio .com.au links. Every time I try, my browesr (FF1.0 on
Mac OSX) tries for a while and then times out.... I've tried to get to
your sites a few times now over the past few days with no joy.

Looks pretty good.

Text for the main body of the page is a bit small though.

Using a <ul> for the navigation menu would enhance its appeal to non-CSS
browsers. If you don't like the margin and bullet points that a <ul> often
carries with it, you can use CSS to remove them.

I get a horz scrollbar in IE 6 at about 850-900 pixels. Not in Moz,
though.

Do you have a working example of the css for this technique Toby....
I am sure you have.

Hi, I am an absolute newbie to Exception Handling, and I am trying to retrofit exception handling to a LOT of C++ code that I've written earlier. I am just looking for a bare-bones, low-tech exception handling mechanism which will allow me to pass character information about an error and its location from lower-level classes. Can you please critique the following exception handling mechanism in terms of my requirements ?
