You don't have a title in the upper left because it's not defined in your web page. Below is a listing from the first couple of lines in your web page. Notice that it says "untitled" between the "title" tags.

You other pages have titles entered correctly. In fact, the first one I looked at has the title defined twice.



Using a in-line style section, like your page currently has, is fine when your initially testing. But generally, when you use style sheet, the CSS code is stored in a separate file. Your HTML files usually just link to the style sheet. This then allows you to create one style sheet, that can be shared by all your HTML pages. Then, if you make a change to one of the styles, all of your pages see the change, the next time they are viewed. You don't have to change every HTML page. Your HTML pages are then just collections of containers that contain text. The style sheet handles the structure.

I know your just starting out, so you need to get things right from the start. Your current in-line style section has multiple problems problems. When a visitors browser encounters any error, no matter how minor, the style is generally ignored. This might cause your page to look a little odd at times.

For example, your in-line style section has the following code. Where you specify the "background-repeat", the value is incorrect. If you didn't want the background to repeat, the value would be "no-repeat". A visitors browser will simply ignore that line. And, since the default is to repeat, vertically and horizontally, that is what a visitor will see.



Then there is the section that looks like the following code. It looks like you are trying to use HTML commenting to disable a group of styles. The commenting you use is for HTML only and doesn't work with CSS. To comment something out in CSS you need to use different bracketing, "/* ..... */"



Then there is this section. I'm not really sure what your trying to do here. It looks like you are trying to define how "paragraphs" are displayed within each "header" type. Or, visa versa. While either one can be done, that isn't how you do it. Those styles will be completely ignored by a visitors browser. A HTML left bracket has no place in a style section or a style sheet.



If you want some really good starter templates, with good CSS examples, you might want to try the Dynamic Drive CSS Library. It has basic layouts for almost every possible need. The examples use in-line style sections for ease in distribution, but that is easily moved to a separate file. If you need help on getting started with one of their layouts, let me know.
