[SOLVED] Else statement screws up all css

[bgbs]

Does anyone know what goes wrong in the process with this php code?

This code seems to be causing it:

 

    <?PHP

                }

else

{

echo " <div class='back-title'><a href='/directory.php' ><h3>Back to Map</h3></a></div>";

 

}

                ?>

            </div>

 

What happens is that the footer css jumps in front of the search results. Other than that the pages renders fine. Only when you make a search and results appear, the css gets screwed up.

 

 

 

<div id="dir-search-bar"> <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="directory.php">
<div id="dir-search-box"><div class="search-title">Search Company or Browse by Map</div>

are you sure all your div tags are closed properly?

wow, I think I solved my own topic. I guess the issue was with the code sinplet above, I shouldnt have wrapped it in css like I did.
