Hey guys, need some help..

Please take a look at my site.. {snip}

Basically, the recently added box and featured box is more left than the header itself and I want to move it over slightly..

I have tried myself but have no luck. If I float the boxes right they go all the way to the right and attach to the ad. If I add margin:5 or so, it aligns but then the video pictures and info join onto the border so i'm at a loss.. Any help?

(Attached my home.tpl (home.html for attachment purposes) and home.css files)

you have more problems than that - have you viewed the site in Firefox?

These problems are not a quick fix. They may involve template edits, not sure.

Please do not post live links to ADULT content.

You could disable the link such as {snip}

and the files are not listed - you may have attached them, but there is a bug here (Jeeves?!) that unlists them if you attach two files.... you need to preview or edit and check the list boxes...

Try adding some padding... I added 30px left padding

#videowatch {
margin:0;
min-height:600px;
padding:2px 0 20px 30px;
text-align:left;
width:940px;
}

then you gotta deal with the adbar on the right

try changing the width, something like:

#sideAd {
float:right;
margin:0;
padding:0;
text-align:center;
width:130px;
}

use Firefox+Firebug!

using Firefox+Firebug

(and you could too!)

#videowatch is defined in

{snip} (line 1)

I do notice a few pixels difference in IE and Ffox - not sure if this can be reconciled, or you need to add an IE stylesheet with conditional comments...

OK, i've added the padding and it has aligned correctly but now the title bar and the content cox has seperated so the distance between them is quite noticable. I would either like to remove the border or decrease the gap.. any idea?

if you added padding all the way around that might cause it

I only added 30px padding-left in the #videowatch padding array

it goes top right bottom left

padding:2px 0 20px 30px;

btw - many of your vids don't play, no player loads, just a blank area

"interesting" vids... Evil

lol thanks for showing me the world of Firefox, always been a IE fan to be honest until this new found love..

Theres around 10 - 15 videos that dont work as they was more 'testers' than anything.. The rest of the 108 do Wink

Sorted the alignment out now thanks to you and firebug.. what a useful tool!

I could not work without Firebug and Web Developer (you can edit the actual stylesheets wysiwyg - but need to save and upload)

also check out measureit and colorzilla

the RankQuest toolbar is handy (checked a whois with it today)

and DummyLipsum is also handy

IE7PRO is an IE addon that makes IE work more like Firefox etc
