Hi there,

I am looking to get some advice on adding images (banners) to my website on the home page, I currently have main content which is centered which leaves a space on the left hand side and a space on the right hand side.

I wish to add some ad banners in these spaces, I have tried adding some text to see if I can get it to go to the far left of the main content but it will only line up to where the main content text starts.

Do I need to add more to the css stylesheet so I can add the banner images to the left and right.

This is the current css I have;



@charset "UTF-8";
* {
margin:0;
}
body, html {
height:100%;
text-align: center;
background-image: url(../images/bg2.gif);
background-repeat: repeat-x;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
#wrapper {
width:950px;
text-align: left;
min-height: 100%;
height: auto !important;
height: 100%;
margin: 0 auto -200px;
}
#header {
height: 43px;
width: 950px;
margin:0 auto;
padding-top: 3px;
}

#contact_copy {
width: 338px;
line-height: normal;
position: absolute;
float: left;
}
#contact_copy ul {
line-height: 1.5;
padding-bottom: 10px;
font-size: 14px;
list-style-type: circle;
padding-left: 15px;
}
#contact_copy h4 {
line-height: 1;
padding: 10px 0;
}


Also if I add a new css value do I have to add a link here on my index.html



</script>
<link href="css/PCstyles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="css/PCcopy.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="css/box.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="css/glossytabs.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="header">


Please excuse me as I did not build my website but wishing to learn to do stuff on my website, really appreciate any help on this guys :)
