IS Shopsite compatible with HTML5?

I don't think it's working so well. Please see my page http://von-nyc.com/store/index.html . Shopsite doesn't even recognize the main content area. I think its in a liquid layout and not fixed. I'm so upset....

Yes, ShopSite does work with HTML5; I have created many templates with HTML5 for ShopSite. I took a look at your page and it looks like there are a few quick fixes that can be made. The main one is your CSS file. I see that you are using the ShopSite publish file section for the CSS. This works exactly the way that you are using it, with one exception, in ShopSite, you can create comments in the template that do not get published by starting a line with a pound sign. The issue that arises with this is that in CSS, if you have a line that has a pound sign as the first thing (such as a CSS ID), then ShopSite comments out that line. To fix this, go to Merchandising > Custom Templates > Includes > Edit Publish, and any line that starts with a pound (such as #header {}) you will want to add a space in front of the pound sign. Then go to Utilities > Publish > Regenerate.
