That is has many html errors and many very basic CSS errors.

Don't use MS Office product for web design other than to compose and| or
spell and grammar check the "copy" (PLAIN TEXT).

-Font too small (on FF at least)
-Made with some Office prudyct, yes? => lots of deprecated tags, like <font>
-Lots of links, may need better organizing
-Try validating, as Dorayme suggests.

Leading us to the perennial question: For what sighs is the OP's site
designed?
How does it display when the viewport has groan?

Keep your designer - the layout and color schemes are nice.
Fire your developer - he or she is using a WYSIWYG editor and writing
code that's ten years out of date and riddled with errors.

Except they failed to set a page background color. Mine isn't white, and
it shows.
Not to mention the layout doesn't adapt very well to larger text sizes.
Overlapping text tends to be unreadable.

Agreed, but I wouldn't blame the designer. In many shops, the designer
just does a mockup of the site in Photoshop, and never touches HTML
code.

Actually, I was looking at another page when I wrote that. The navbar
disappearing isn't the only problem.

Tis the evils of setting fixed px dimensions for text blocks - it's
doomed to fail, and so unnecessary in the first place.

Hmm indeed... perhaps he was just spamming Usenet to begin with, or
perhaps he's now too embarrassed about the site and doesn't want to take
any more criticism.

Hello everyone. I apprecaite everyones comments to my website. I
created the layout after several iterations. I admit that I am
completely outdated when it comes to Website development as I was
using Microsoft Frontpage from like 10 years ago. Anyone have any
suggestions about which software i should use now? I have to admit
that I am intimidated when it comes to CSS & PHP.
Thanks!

You're not outdated - Frontpage is still one of the worst possible
ways to create web pages. That hasn't changed in the past 10
years.
DreamWeaver's "code" view isn't too bad. It has all the stuff you'd
expect from a code-oriented text editor - syntax highlighting,
autocomplete, folding, etc. It also has built-in references from
O'Reilly & Associates.
You should avoid the WYSIWYG view like the plague though - at least
until you know enough HTML & CSS to avoid its worst faults, and fix
them if necessary.
