I’m looking for frequently run into issues or questions to write posts that will help others that are either learning or are having problems. Do you have a topic that might help others? Leave a comment. I’ll even give you credit for the suggestion. The community has offered many resources to us as developers, and I’m happy to return the favor. Let’s see if we can’t help others too.
Do you have quite a bit of experience with technical issues, but haven’t quite found the forum to help others? Register and leave a comment, I’ll email you directly with more information.

Shaun,
As always thanks for all the help and advice. I was wondering if you could take a look at http://www.disciplesoftech.com I have a little graphical overhang there. You know how little I know about CSS I was wondering if that is what is causing it or something in my PHP. I believe the overhang started after I added the login box.

Within your CSS, you use a class of SC, set the width of that class to 652px. It’s currently set at 630px.
No problem. Glad we can help.

Thats great thanks! What do you use to edit your CSS? Is there a good program for that? I use Dreamweaver for Coldfusion because I like the way it color codes.

Keep an eye out for posts on these issues coming soon. I use Fedora 8 with GEdit since it has snippets. I’ve also used kate, which was great, but minus the power of the Gedit snippets. However, Kate does have a better file manager.
As far as what to use for validating and checking CSS, I use firefox as my primary browser with the Firebug plugin. This helps to debug real time without having to upload your changes until you know what needs to be fixed. It also has great Network and javascript debugging modules.
