Please use the [code] tags. Makes it more readable. you have <b><i> tags out of place. More than likely you have an open <u>...</u> tag.
I suggest validating your code - it will point out the rest of the errors.
Hope that helps.

hey guys
,
Im new
Ok here goes
...
There are a few problems with you code all ready
remember ... when writing code ... that if you do somthing like this :
"<1><2><3> Some text to be edited with those elements ...."
ALWAYS close them in this order :
"<1><2><3> Some text to be edited with those elements .... </3></2></1>"
Think of it like they are all boxes ...
So 1 contains 2 + 3 ... and 2 contains 3
(btw, <1>,<2>,<3> are not real elements, they were examples
)
that aside ... if you have links ... the browser default is to underline them
..
to get past this, you'd have to use a lil CSS
do this :

Hope i helped
bam
Edit 1:
Ooh btw ... you seem to have ended your body, the continued coding ...
The BASIC layout you should start with is :
you CANNOT have "2" bodys ..
Glad i could help (again)

Re: HMTL underlining my entire page
Posted 14 October 2009 - 12:12 PM
Hmm, the only bug i can see so far would be a ancor (<a>)
You've put <a href="imhungrydelivery.com>
Two errors ...
1. Forgoten ' " '
2. You'r refering to a file called "imhungrydelivery" and the file type .com (Which is not existant ...(i think))
To fix these :
1. Put ' " ' at the end of your file ...
2. If it's a URL, change it to : <a href="http://www.imhungrydelivery.com" target="_Blank"> [your text here] </a>
Or if it's another file on your comp, change it to : <a href="imhungrydelivery.html"> [your text here] </a>
There are a few other issues, such as "Straddeling" elements (as shown above) :
Should be :
Ok, thats the clean-up done ...
Now whats your problem
?
Half the page not displaying?
Explain a little please

1997 called and they want their <b>'s and <i>'s back... I surely wouldn't want to have to edit that page after you. <p> elements for spacing?!?

@ W3B Dev :
No need for that comment ...
You started somewhere, so's this guy, leave him ok?
<b>, <i> tags aren't really used that much yes, but they are much easier to understand at a lower level, until you get into CSS and using the "style" attribute ...
Don't insult new users, kinda puts them down ...

@ OP :
Ignore him ...

Re: HMTL underlining my entire page
Posted 15 October 2009 - 02:41 PM
It might be worth explaining though eh?
Modern techniques for making websites try to separate the information and the styling as much as possible. Part of this means that we stopped using tags like <b> and <i>, and replaced them with css. in this way, tags like <div> and <span> are used to mark code, and classes let the css target them with rules.
A simple example:
html
css
One of big advantages of this is that a disabled person using a technology such as a screen reader will not have to listen to <b> and <i> tags being open and closed. This is because <div> and <span> tags are ignored by most screen readers. If you do still want to tag some text for emphasis in html you can use <strong>.
Another big advantage is that when you take all the presentational code out of your html and put it in one css file, it can be reused across your whole site. This makes changing your design a lot easier because you only have to alter one file to make presentation changes on every page.
Modern techniques for making websites try to separate the information and the styling as much as possible. Part of this means that we stopped using tags like <b> and <i>, and replaced them with css. in this way, tags like <div> and <span> are used to mark code, and classes let the css target them with rules.
A simple example:
html
<span class="boldAndItalic">This text will be made bold and italic by css.</span>
css
.boldAndItalic {
font-weight:bold;
font-style:italic;
}
