* On visiting a blog I designed for a client, I noticed that the main navigation
was out of place. On checking the HTML using Firebug in Firefox 4, I came across
some extra code (Links)that had been added to the code.
* I’ve doubled checked the header.php file for the blog & everything is as it should
be.
* Website is [http://www.sunflowerbloom.co.uk/blog](http://www.sunflowerbloom.co.uk/blog)
Extra links are those linking back to index.htm:
* _[please mark your code using the code button or backticks]_
* ```
About Us
```
* Can’t understand why this is happening! Anyone able to help?

* what is ‘out of place’?
do you mean that the ‘blog’ link is one row lower? that
is caused by the fixed width in here:
* ```
/*Navigation*/
#main_nav {
height: 40px;
left: 490px;
position: absolute;
top: 15px;
width: 480px;
}
```
* using firefox as well, i see this in the html in the browser (no exra links):
* ```
```
* can you post the code of header.php ?
(please use the [http://pastebin.com/](http://pastebin.com/))

* Here is the code of header.php:
* _[Code moderated as per the [Forum Rules](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome).
Please do **not** repost the code but use the [pastebin](http://wordpress.pastebin.com/)
instead.]_
* HTML does appear using “View source” as you say, but when using Firebug, the
extra links are appearing. Basically extra parts of the header area have become
links, linking back to the website homepage (not WordPress).

* > Basically extra parts of the header area have become links,
* which parts are these exactly – apart from the linked sunflower image?
* i inspect the header using firefox web developer add-on and i don’t get any extra
links.
* the only irregularity i get when viewing the source in firefox is this unusual
syntax higlighting:

* maybe some character problem?

* I just don’t understand why they are appearing & how to get rid of them!
