The wife runs a local chapter for parents with kids with sensory issues so I wanted to put up a site for her where she can send parents for more information.

I downloaded one of those premade templates and started modifying the hell out of it. Making her a logo, moving around some stuff and that's probably my first mistake because I'm not a designer. I also needed the individual "cells" to expand without breaking the side "lines" the template came with as you added text - theirs did.

Now I have 2 issues that I'm running into...

1.
As the page is now, http://www.sensorychild.com/ when viewing it in IE and Firefox, I get a gap under the brown "news" section (but not in IE). I can fix that by adding a spacer, but that requires me to run 2 copies of the page and doing a browser check to send people to the right page for their browser.

2. I fubbed up the "welcome" section. The border lines break when I add alot of text and I can't figure out why here when I did the "book" and "partner" section just fine. You can see that at http://www.sensorychild.com/test.html

Can a few of you design guys take a look and tell me how to fix it for a good cause?

The green puzzle image on the test page

I've cut around that image so it is in its' own cell. It "shouldn't" effect the lines surrounding the "welcome" section when I add additional text.
