Hi Matt
Yes applying that masterpage has resolved the issue. The homepage form my site is still unavalible but thats not too much of an issue for me.
Could you point me to any documentation relating to masterpages?. The reason I ask is i created a new masterpage (so i can leave the one you created untouched). I copied the HTML content from the Masterpage Blank to my new masterpage but the format of the page i assign it to isnt correct in a browser. eg the buttons dont have any kk styling on them, they arnt blue...
