hi r thanks for taking the time to have a look.

what i meant was i removed every instance of the offending 'px'.

So i should have my smarties.css and a blank.css which contains purely the info you posted?

If I stick it in the smarties css it seems to overwrite the align center tag I've given the main table.

Do you mean I could have something like this?:

.links
a.homepage:hover
a:press:hover
etc?

again, thanks for your time.
