Try giving your #wrapper a width, for example 960px, then try resizing your browser window. Is this the effect you wanted?

Slightly off topic but I always use ordered lists <ol> for navigation, I think it's more semantic and navigation bars tend to have an order to them (you don't often see the homepage link in the middle of a nav bar). It also makes sense to you the new <nav> tag.

I'm currently using E Text editor but have recently discovered Sublime Text 2, which once you have downloaded a few plugins has all the functionality of E but also has more communication between the developer and community which gives me hope that Sublime will be kept up to date and constantly improved. It's a little buggy at the moment but that's because it's still being developed.

Welcome to the forum!Yes, JS can be confusing to learn, but it is becoming one of my favorite languages as I become more familiar with it. There are so many cool tricks and many practical applications for it.

I think the main problem is that I am trying to learn JS the right way. There's lots of tutorials out there that produce functional results but the code used isn't great and they always end up mixing JS in with the HTML. The fact that IE does many things differently to all other browsers doesn't help.
