      I tried validating your CSS in the W3C Validator (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/) - it came back with:
      File not found: http://champagnegiftbaskets.info/”http://champagnegiftbaskets.info/assets/templates/default/invention_style.css: Not Found
      I’m not sure about its interaction with the BASE tag, but I think if you try adding a slash before "assets/..." in the stylesheet link this may be corrected. I.e. make it:
      <link href="/assets/templates/default/invention_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
      

      (The site works in IE8, by the way, until you switch on "compatibility view")

        hi there,

        it’s recommended to set the base-tag like this -> <base href="[(site_url)]"></base>

            Have you done anything with an .htaccess file on your site? If you have one, and it has not been done correctly, it could be interfering with the file and page links. ( Post it here if you have one)
            Try to fix one thing at a time, or you will surely go mad shocked KP

              # MODx supports Friendly URLs via this .htaccess file. You must serve web
              # pages via Apache with mod_rewrite to use this functionality, and you must
              # change the file name from ht.access to .htaccess.
              #
              # Make sure RewriteBase points to the directory where you installed MODx.
              # E.g., "/modx" if your installation is in a "modx" subdirectory. If you have
              # problems with your .htaccess working at all, try un-commenting the first 
              # line above the "RewriteEngine On" directive.
              #
              # You may choose to make your URLs non-case-sensitive by adding a NC directive
              # to your rule: RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA,NC]
              
              #Options +FollowSymlinks

                You have fancy quotes in your BASE and META Content-type tags. Try ordinary quotes, and things should get a lot better! shocked KP
