Primary links sometimes(!) to high displayed

On http://www.immermusik.de/ you see a photo with the site's primary links below.
Sometimes, the links are displayed to high, so that they touch the photo and are hard to read.
A Site reloading solves the problem.
What can i do?

discouraged...can figure out creating content, but can't wrap head around creating navigation

I am reading through posts here in the 'post-installation' forum.. finding lots of questions about how to create my navigation but not a lot of answers... I'm looking through the support areas of the site.. not finding the pointers I need there either..

Is there a tutorial somewhere? I was hoping to switch from phpwcms to drupal but it's proving maybe a bit above my head...

Any help available? Anyone in NY/Westchester using this I can talk to?

TIA,

Clean URL's on a localhost / pc running Apache 2

In attempting to resolve my issue, I have read just about every relevant post on clean url's that I can find, but I'm still stuck...

I am using drupal 4.4.2 on a shared host and clean url's works fine.

However, I still have an installation on my pc, which I want to use for development purposes,
I would really like to use clean url's on this local installation of drupal, so that I can occassionally import the mysqldump from the net hosted installation.

This local instal runs on
Apache 2..039
PHP 4.2.2

I have modified httpd.conf to include

allow overide All

and even included that setting with the default directory (which I'm not sure about)

And I've modified .htaccess to include

IfModule sapi_apache2.c

rather than

IfModule mod_php4.c

which I'm also not sure about, but I've tried both combinations to no different effect

And of course, I've changed my rewrite base to /drupal

With clean url's on the following happens:

Say I select Admin / Configuration, I get a dialogue box offering me to

open "system" which is a: application /x-httpd-php
from http://localhost/drupal/admin

which suggests a fundamental problem within the httpd conf file?
Can anyone explain what else is missing in this local setup that might be causing me to fail.

Sample PHP content needed in the Developers' Handbook

I have spend quite some time looking through the Handbook but I can't seem to locate any sample code for php boxes or "static" php pages. While there are sections describing how to make modules and themes, I can't find any that give examples for pages and boxes. I'd suggest that this would be very helpful for the large number of people like me who are not professional programmers but who can figure out how to tweek code appropriately.
