Totally CSS except for the end where I had to use a table, as the
"indludes" didn't function properly in the css.
I know the css should be moved to a seperate file, but apart from that
any suggestions?

Fix the errors?
Make sure the text can be resized in IE (so don't use pt or px for
font-size).
Add some alt texts so it's usable with images disabled.

Thanks Steve, I used the validator but found it wasn't that great with
my page. 90% of the errors were just different coding, such as php
links, or the wacky system I got for the title hyperlinks.
I'll stick some ALT tags in, if for no other reasons than it gives me
a place to put some more google optimised text on the page :-)

Proprietary markup like the BORDERCOLOR attribute can be written off as
"just different coding", but you should probably use CSS instead. And many
of the errors indicate real problems.
You're using id="links" more than once. The value of the ID attribute must
be unique in any given document. If you're using the same value of ID more
than once, then perhaps you should be using CLASS instead.
You need to escape ampersands in attribute values as &

You have improperly nested tags. See
And your CSS still uses pt for font sizes, which is inappropriate on the

That's the wrong use for ALT, and abuse like that has caused many search
engines to start ignoring ALT text.

If the validator is seeing any PHP then your code is broken. PHP
should be parsed on the server and not sent out over the web.
If you just mean that PHP is generating links with & in them then you
need to make PHP generate links with & in them instead.

Welcome to the world of search engine black lists. Hope you didn't
want your site to be well indexed.
Switch of image loading and try to use your site. Now add alt texts.
