Could someone take a look at the following website and the CSS stylesheets and tell where I've gone wrong.

Basically, you cannot select a piece of text in isolation and copy it.

If you try, it either does nothing or selects loads of other stuff as well.

I thought it might be because I did not set the z-index on the divs, but I have tried setting a different z-index for each div name and it makes no difference.

I am now at a loss as to how to fix this issue.

Please help!?

As an update to my query. This seems to be an i.e.6 problem. I can quite easily copy the text in Firefox and i.e.7

Any ideas if there is a hack for i.e.6

I run your html through the validator and got . . .

<pre id=code><font face=courier size=2 id=code> Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML parser.

1. Error Line 2 column 21: delimiter "&gt;" invalid: only minimum literal and parameter separators are allowed.

&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC&gt;

&#9993;
2. Error Line 2 column 21: cannot continue because of previous errors.

&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC&gt;</font id=code></pre id=code>

that might be the cause
