CMS Made Simple Forums

Could somebody help me out...Mark?

I just added my second blog post, and IE messes up the lay-out.
Ff is cool with it...
www.partana.nl

Probably has to do with 2 divs floating left...

    div#main {
        float: left;
        width: 62%;
        display: inline;
        margin-left: 2%;
        padding: 0 1% 0 2%;
    }
    div#content2 {
        float: left;    try right with 2% in place of 1% in padding...
        width: 28%;
        display: inline;
        padding: 0 1% 0 2%;
        border-left: dashed 1px #cccccc;
    }

It did move the Jukebox to the right, thanks.
But the problem remains: whenever I add a news article, part of the previous article jumps to the right in IE.

I use the HTML Validator extension with Ff and get these warning/errors... they show up when I view source, it hilites them in purple so you know what it's talking about, a lot of extra s and divs are all wacked out some how...

I would take the player out of table layout and either make a new news template, go to Modules and click the name or Help for info on making new template, or just set the things you don't want shown in the news to {display: none}, thinking the might be messing with IE...

Mark, I tried adding the comment module. It made some improvement:

The text isn't displayed to the right..but my footer is now messy, and the content2 erea still isn't right...

Ehm...me again...I got it working (except for something small). It works with the comments module now, I just didn't copy/paste it right (http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php ... /Templates)

After I create the .tpl file as discraped in the above page, where do I put this?

Call it with this:

Latest 5 blog posts
{cms_module module='news' number='5' summarytemplate='recent_blog_posts.tpl'}

In Extensions > Modules you will find a list of Modules by name if you click on the name of News or other module or the word Help you will get a page that tells you the parameters it takes and how to use them...

The tag in your quote can go in the template or in a Content edit box, watch out that it doesn't get formatted, use the source view button to be sure...

Oke thanks, think i won't be using it though...

One thing still remains...it's the footer is displayed a little to high, so these a bit orange betweeen the brown footer and the brown bottom of the page.

It's from the content....

    div#content {
        position: relative;
        margin: 1.5em auto 2em 0;    set to 0 may help...
        padding: 0;
        text-align: left;
    }

omg...that helped! What do you eat at breakfast??
