Just need some help with my webpage

Alright, I'm gonna throw down some facts first.

I'm only 13, but I intend to start early on this stuff if I wanna learn better in highschool, as I intend to take the Buisness Tech course in highschool.

I figured I'd ask you guys because some of you guys are adults, and everyone knows adults know everything :P

Mmk, so I'm making a webpage for a friend.

I figured I'd conjure up a horizontal menu in a CSS document and throw in a content box code. (View the CSS [url="http://freewebs.com/hermantheory/style.css"]here.[/url])

I do the typical stuff in a new HTML document (Favicon link, css link, title etc etc --- You get the idea)... [View the page [url="http://freewebs.com/hermantheory/test.htm"]here.[/url] (Ugh, what a mess.)

I try and slap down the horizontal menu I created earlier, but it turns out... not good. Heck, even the background image and what not isn't showing up.

I figure, "Not exactly satisfactory,". But fret not, for next I tried the content box. Again, can't say I was exactly pleased.

I've made a website before, which happened to work out fabulously. And then I muck this one up. How shameful.

Oh, I intend to add more to the CSS. So don't worry about the the anti-complimentary link color.

...Anyway, I was hoping you dudes could help me.

13 isn't starting early. O_o

Anyway, your problem is that you didn't close the following line...a very simple mistake and easy to spot.

[code]<link rel="icon"
type="image/ico"
href="http://freewebs.com/hermantheory/favicon.ico"[/code]

Oh wow... that would explain.... a lot.

Indeed. That should fix most of your problems. Also, you're a very messy coder....ugh...I hate messy code.... >_>

yeah you should really consider cleaning up your code..thats going to be a nightmare to read through a few months from now once you forgot what you where thinking while making it :p

also make sure you check for valid css on the w3c website.

Argh, don't use freewebs.com...very cheesy.

Go to [url]www.110mb.com[/url]...way better than any other free host on the web. You get 2000MB of space, something like 100GB monthly transfer, full FTP support, PHP support (along with a lot of other languages) and no ads (plus it's 100% free).

Yeah except the register page shows up blank, otherwise, I definately would.
