As noted by Maximillian, your (X)HTML does *not* validate. Also, you'd do
well to lose the scripting, browser detection, and dynamic stylesheet
inclusion. There's *nothing* about this layout that requires this level of
complexity in CSS conditionalizing. A single <link>'ed stylesheet and a
single @import()'ed stylesheet should be more than enough.
>From a skim through the code it appears that you're trying to cover as many
bases with older browsers as possible. If that's indeed the case, use
HTML4.01, not XHTML1.0 Trans. A couple of additional notes regarding the
code. If you're interested in the code validating, drop the use of the
deprecated <center> tag and drop the use of closing tag notes like "</div
navbarDIV>". I know they're helpful, but it results in invalid (X)HTML.
