Another questoin... text not showing up

[DaKitty]

I started adding text to the pages, and it's not showing up!
http://www.socalolympians.org/about_us.asp

I can see the text in the code, it's not showing up in IE6.

I've never seen that happen before! *puzzled*

Cool, how'd you do that?
Not seeing text in Firefox either.

I think I just managed to fix it!
I was experimenting with CSS, there is a variable for 'block display' and it
was set to none. I changed it to 'inline' and that fixed the part of the
problem.
Then I had to go fiddle with 'box' height and width, till it positioned
right.

This is how my css reads:
\.body1 {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: small;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
position: static;
line-height: normal;
word-spacing: normal;
letter-spacing: normal;
padding: 10px 30px 10px 100px;
width: 535px;
height: 600px;
clear: left;
float: left;
border: thin none;
list-style-type: none;
color: #000000;
font-variant: normal;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
display: inline;
text-align: justify;
vertical-align: top;


I'm going to guess this is probably not the best way to do this... but it's
my first attempt at CSS. I don't know what half of those things represent...
Just keep adjusting values and seeing what happens to the layout.

Next, I'm gonna try to position an image, in the blank space to the left of
text... see what happens. I'm guessing I might be able to do that with help
of CSS. To be continued

I'm starting to gather brucie is someone I really need to be nice to in
here, seems like he's got a ton of info!
I think I noticed he has a webpage? I can't find the post where I saw that
now. :-\
There's so much here, it's little overwhelming... just for a moment though.
I'm new here! Hopefully you guys won't be too hard on me when I make the
newbie mistakes!
