    Default Links moving when previewed

    Some of my page links and one external link is moving to the left when I preview. I can't find any reason for this since most of the other links are not moving. I have tried moving the links around a little, but no change. Please help.
    my site is www.ornametals1.com This is how it should look. The links that are moving are the "Custom Gates", "Security Gates", and "Standard Gates" and an external link at the bottom of the page www.mylovelaunch.com .
    I don't know how to attach a screen shot so any help there would be great too.

    If we can't see what is happening, we can't be of much help.

    To post a screenshot here you need to create the image and upload it on your site. When done, you can post it here using the URL of the image

    Links/text can move because of the different rendering of text by different browsers.
    Usually, by adjusting the width of the text box a bit wider you will resolve this problem.

    Ok here are links to the screen shots showing the problem with the links.
    http://www.ornametals1.com/screen1.html
    http://www.ornametals1.com/screen2.html
    The yellow arrows point to the "moved" links. It has now started moving graphics (my logo) and html links?
    As you can see from my index page (www.ornametals1.com/index.html) it was fine, but now there seems to be a glitch.
    Thanks in advance
    BTW Carbon Terry, tried extending the text boxes where possible, no change.

    Almost certainly, the issue is caused by an unclosed <div> tag in your page code, due to third party code you have added in BV

    Start removing, one at a time, HTML boxes or code added in the page or the objects HTML, until you find the problematic code. I believe it could be the "email us" code, but you need to verify yourself.

    You nailed it Navaldesign! It was the "email us" that was shifting everything. So what is the best way to add an "email us" button or link without causing this problem.
    here is a copoy of the html code for the button:
    <FORM>
    <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="E-mail Us" onClick="parent.location='mailto:ornametals@bellso uth.net?subject=iron work&cc=you2@youremail.com'">
    </FORM></div>
    is it wrong?

    <div>
    <FORM>
    <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="E-mail Us" onClick="parent.location='mailto???@??????.net?subject=iron work&cc=you2@youremail.com'">
    </FORM>
    </div>



    Just add the missing <div> at athe start of the code.
