Text run on over template

I am using CMS Made Simple 1.4.1 "Spring Garden", Php 5, MySQl 5.0.22 on Windows Server 2003 Web Edition, IIS 6

I am having an issue with pages that have long text in length. I am not sure if the problem is with CMS or my templates. Either way, your suggestions would be appreciated.

The link is here that you can see below:

Can you post your template (and stylesheet), your page code looks kind of all over the place in my opinion.

The CSS is attached:

The page code is listed below:

------------------------------------------------------------




{metadata}
{stylesheet}




 
  {menu template='cssmenu.tpl'}



  {breadcrumbs}

 
   
    {content}
 



 
   
      {search} 
 
  Recent Blog Entries
     
      {global_content name='Blog Entrys'}
   
       
 
     

 
  {Banners category="side"}
 
    Tech News
  {cms_module module='News'}


{global_content name='footer'}

At first glance the template and CSS look ok but when I look at your page's source I see stuff like


<a target='_blank'

etc.

What are you using to work on your pages?

I am using Dreamweaver to work on the page.

In IE 6. everything works as it should. IE 7 and FF 3, it doesnt.

Change your content div to 100% height, instead of 1200px:

#content{
float:right;
width: 70%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 3% 0 0;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border-left-width: 0px;
border-left-style: solid;
height: 100%;
}

Thanks, that works in all three browsers IE, FF, and Safari. I also had to change the tan color nav bar to 100% also.
Is there any that I can make the navigation vertical bar flush at the bottom where the white meet the red.

Or any tricks that would make it look joined?

The best way would be to wrap both your navbar and content divs inside another div with a background color that matches the current navbar background color. Then the navbar background could be transparent and the content remains white. It would give the illusion that the left bar extended the same length as the content.
