    Made my flight arrangements via Visions of Africa who I have used on 4 occasions now. Excellent service.

     

    Cost was a bit pricey as Easter is high season but you take the rough with the smooth (STG 750). Flying Air Namibia direct from Gatwick to Windhoek Intl and then have a connection to Swakopmund and onwards to Walvis (STG 50 return).

     

    There's links on my site to Visions, ask for Alan Garner.

     

    Might see you on the beaches, Sea Ace tend to fish a bit futher north than Terence but if the fishing's hard I normally see them about.

     

    Anything else you need to know just fire away or e-mail me via the site.

     

    Regards,

    Tony

  2. Go Start/Run and type msconfig then open startup tab and you will see what starts on boot up.

     

    You can then disable various things in this tab and apply the settings at next boot up.

     

    Lexmark printers and |Skype are fairly notorious for hogging resource at start up, as are Norton and McAfee....

  3. #content {margin: 10px 205px;background-color: #FFFFF0;text-align: center;	height: 100%;	top: 5%;	border: thick solid #8FBC8F;	padding: 5px;	}.content1 {width: 50%;text-align: center;background-color: #FFF8DC;	height: 100%;	top: 5%;	margin: 30px 190px;	padding: 10px;	border: thick solid #8FBC8F;}

    Are you trying to create different sized divs? Also what's the intention with the width % in the second?

     

    Is it IE6 it goes mad in or IE7?

     

    Is this link any help? http://www.csscreator.com/node/308

     

    Try adding this code to the holding container code [bODY]

     

    text-align: center

     

    That seems to fix it in IE6 and since all your div's contain 'text-align: center' you could dispense with that and just align left/right if you decide to have a div not centred.

  4. If you want to remove Works altogether then do so from Add/Remove programs (may need to tick 'include updates' at top of window).

     

    If it's just the desktop tile, can you drag it to the recycle bin? Or does this prompt an error? I don't use works either I prefer OpenOffice....

  5. Hmmmm

     

    There must be a way other than this but I'm not an expert and I can't find it just yet :D

     

    The background image repeats across the page since the 'no-repeat' attribute is unspecified and the text doesn't go to the edges 'cos it's centred.

     

    If it were me I'd photoshop the holly and make a banner (by repeating the image) the same width of the text and then use that as the background image with the attribute background-position:center set.

     

    That should solve it......

     

    Or leave it as it is, 'cos I think it looks rather nice ;)

     

    Now if only I could sort out my problem ;)

  6. Background-Image

     

    Background-image lets you specify a graphic file that will be used as a background for an element. This can easily look messy so this tag should be used with care if you intend having a text displayed over a busy looking image. The image might even obscure the text completely.

     

    If your background image only applies to a few elements you should either include a plain background of a similar colour to be used behind the rest of the page or use the background-color property to specify a colour that is harmonious with the images used.

     

    The background image can be specified as either a full URL such as http://www.mysite.com/background.gif or relative URL such as /images/background.gif.

     

    H1 { background-image: /images/background.gif }

     

    Lifted from http://www.practicalpc.co.uk/webbuilding/design/css4.htm

     

    Spooky I'm just looking at a very similar thing....
