Cause it uses divs not tables. Normally when one uses div's, one also uses CSS to control their layout

Yes. Time? No.

You might get some help posting in the software forum.

I've looked at it and its not a CSS issue all his CSS things have only height attributes. I fixed the problem...


The guy has WAY too many </div> tags he has an extra 3 in each section at the end. and you dont have to end a division by declaring its style. mayne he was trying to make another division.

Here is the fix:

</div> </div class="blogbody">

</div><div id="links"></div></div></div>
Click to expand...

Where ever there is these two lines in his code it breaks the DIV

change it to this

</div> <div class="blogbody">


</div><div id="links"></div>
Click to expand...

The reason for the plethora of closing </div> tags is that someone else advised that that may be the problem (no closing tags). At this point, we're just trying everything/anything. I'll clean it up and see what happens.

Thanks.

ahh so it partially works now. Now, I simply need to move the portion with the UMD logo over to the right column. Any suggestions?

got it! If this is what you're looking for www.drunkatuw.com/josh/index.html

Then after "Will wonders never cease?" I added 3 </div> to end the body (no idea why I needed three, didn't check that)
Then you need a <div id="menu"> on the next line.

Then on the last line of index.html add another </div>.

And hopefully that will work.

Yep, thanks. I still have a problem with centering (on the left) and also my old posts have comments. Any suggestions?

The past advice seems to have gotten the site to work somewhat, yet the logo on the bottom and all the information beneath it actually belongs on the RIGHT side of the screen, what can be done to fix this?
