December Tampa Bay Meetup (#4)
The fourth Tampa Bay Drupal meetup is coming up on December 2nd. Sorry for the delayed event entry on the site.
Last meetup, we went over some very common and useful modules (notes here). This month Adam is scheduled to go over the basics of setting up Drupal themes. I believe he'll mention some good starter themes to build off of, and other tips/tricks related to theming.

Content shows up in Firefox but not IE
I'm in the process of creating custom node.tpl.php files for some of the content types on a site that I manage. The problem I am having (I think right now the problem is limited to the "page" content type) on some pages is that the content does not show up in IE as opposed to Firefox where it displays fine.
Here is a link to an example page:
http://msvehicles.com/sales-team
Originally I had a blank node.tpl.php but that caused a lot of pages to lack content. So I added:
<?php print $content; ?>
Gainesville Meetup Wrap Up
The gainesville drupal group met Thursday at the Alachua County Library for our 2 hour meetup. We had 7 people in attendance. Mike H. gave us his presentation of the 960 grid system and sub themes. He showed us how to manipulate the screen to use the grid system to display div blocks spanning multiple widths and heights. He also showed us how to change the layout from a 960 pixel grid to 1200 pixel grid and also to modify the blocks from 12 blocks to 16 blocks depending on your design. Next he showed us how to apply classes from the stylesheet with the grid layout.

Main page (homepage) works fine, all others give 404 error
Ok, so I decided to move hosting providers. I transferred all of the content, I transferred all of the databases, I edited all the configs for the databases so that they would see and login to the new MySQL location. When I go to the website the main page pulls up fine, however, if I try going to ANY other pages (unless it is a direct link to an add-on website), or even logging in for that matter I get a 404 Page not found page...and it's not the custom when I have setup in Drupal.
