[cressy]

hi i am new to web design and already i have a problem lol, i have a website www.massacre-clan.co.uk , i am having a go at editing the theme but i have got stuck on one thing, as you can see on the site the menus to the right are at the top where they should be but the menus to the left are down at the botom and make it look untidy, i want them at the top left with the writing in the centre, somebody please help me im so confused

[Lchad]

I'm not sure what menu you are talking about.
Can you tell me the names of the buttons you want help with specifically?

Thanks

[cressy]

yeah sorry i have changed the theme to a finished one so that site visitors can see, i have attached 2 pictures. in them you will see the layout of the page, the menu to the right is not to the edge and the menus to the left are way down at the bottom and the writing up to the left. i want the tables either side and the writing in the centre, please help

[Lchad]

Can you just save the page as test.html and upload it and send me the link?
No one will see it but us... then I can take a look at the code.

[karinne]

Yes ... a link you be great so we can play around with the code and help you out better!

[cressy]

do you want a link to my website?

[cressy]

i am confused as to what you mean save page and send you link

[karinne]

tip: use the "EDIT" button

Yes ... we want a link to your site so we can see the code and what happening.

[Lchad]

You don't have the funky page online because you don't want visitors to see it, so I was hoping you could put it up temporarily...

[cressy]

www.massacre-clan.co.uk is the link and you will see the menus on front page are all over the place

[Lchad]

First thing I'd fix is the position of the navigation to something similar to this:

Code: Select all

#navigation{

	height: 21px;

	position: absolute;

	left: 5px;

	top: 175px;

	text-align: center;

}

Now tell me what column is on the left, which is on the right and which is in the center.
Please give me titles of your columns. Right now you have your columns stacked one on top of the other so I can't tell which is supposed to be where.
Is the date and time on the left or right?

[cressy]

i have changed the postioning but ithas done nothing, could it be something to do with the script

[Lchad]

I don't know because your tables are all set up incorrectly. If you could answer the questions I asked in the last post, I might be able to help you.

[cressy]

where do i find the name of my colums?

[Lchad]

Look at your screen shot. Is the column that starts with DATE and TIME a right column, middle column or right column?

[cressy]

it is the right colum but as you can see its not all the way to the right

[cressy]

the colum titled bf2 battlefield 2 and evrything under it is the left colum but ass you can see its at the bottom, the other news and donation colum is supposed to be in the centre under the welcome message

[Lchad]

Ok... I'll try to work on it in a little bit...

[cressy]

thank you i havent got a clue, is it the margin code by any chance?

[Lchad]

No my initial thought is all your tables are 100% in width. You need to shrink those to the appropriate width. Possibly 20% for the left one and right one and 60% for center. But I'm not sure until I play with the code.

I really couldn't make heads or tails of the code the first time I looked, hopefully I'll have better luck.
