this is bad. i hate it when

this is bad. i hate it when people use this framework, it makes the code so sloppy and hard to understand. people has a misconception about the 960. the best way to use it, is not to use the framework! simple create a 960 grid image, and apply it to the body of your document. then use your clean html and construct your layout. So much easier then than having to sift through all the different styles to find what you need to work with.

you have problems.
1. validate your code
2. your style sheets are causing conflicts with eachother. the page in question has 50px top padding applied to body tag, but none of the others do. This page is using main.css, but the others use style.css

3. Design the prototype
4. Style using CSS

Using the CSS validator. Google is your friend.

All CSS frameworks in my opinion are a bad thing.

No, the 960 idea is great, I use it on most things I create. Whats bad is using the "framework" or code they provided. Its best to code everything yourself.
