    Hi, the code looks to be all over the place from first glance, in your product div (the containing one) you should really list each product using an unordered list rather than a div, it'll make it so much easier, theres other stuff like random closing tags such as </align:left>

    Sorry if thats not much help

Bigcartel is an ecommerce site which allows you to list items easily so i havent actually written that html but somewhere along the lines when i have gone into the html background i have moved/deleted something to cause the images to load like this?....its just i dont know where the prob is!? Thanks

    I think it’s something to do with the div (main), perhaps it’s not enclosed properly in the wrapper?

    Sorry, not got enough time to have more of a look at it.

    Use the validator to debug your HTML. That is what it is for; [Invalid] Markup Validation of http://www.regalrose.co.uk/category/earrings - W3C Markup Validator This is already showing some unclosed divs etc. so work through them until it is fixed.

    Thank you. Had a go at the html checker and it didnt reveal the problem in question (i dont think). If anyone knows someone i can pay to have a look at it that would be great,

    many thanks!

    Are you absolutely sure the answer isn't there? W3 is the best tool for debug in my opinion. For example;

    Line 444, Column 8: end tag for element "div" which is not open
    </div>

    The Validator found an end tag for the above element, but that element is not currently open. This is often caused by a leftover end tag from an element that was removed during editing, or by an implicitly closed element (if you have an error related to an element being used where it is not allowed, this is almost certainly the case). In the latter case this error will disappear as soon as you fix the original problem.

    If this error occurred in a script section of your document, you should probably read this FAQ entry.
    Stray opening and closing divs aren't a good start for a stable layout. Have you actually been through it and fixed until it validates or did it scare you off a bit?
