Change the margin-topto a much smaller number like -200 if it's not perfect yet then keep messing with it till you do get it the way you want it.

You also should have another div layer to be able to move the blog around do you have that? Cause I don't see it in your code.
You should arrange your layout like this...
Stylesheet Modules/info div Blog div

Plug. In. Numbers. Then. Work with the numbers until they work. Fix the navigation to where you want it and then fix the blog box. That simple.

But do you understand.. what I did.. LOST my info side and setted my blog entries FAR away from the banner?

Yes. And so YOU MAKE THE NUMBERS BIGGER until you see it again. Because the magin-left is -900px, so it most likely off the page. Then you go from there.

I got you started on where you want the thing spositioned pretty accurately you just have to fix widths and very few margins.

OMG THAT HELPED A LOT.. but I'm very close.. you know the blog? It's not completely touching the left side??

I believe it's the margin border? I'm not sure...

Margin-left = Space away from the left of your screen. Margin-top = space from the top of your screen. ---- Move it about... Six pixels further to the left. Doesn't look good if it touches the exact edge, use about a 2px space to make to easier to read. Then fix the blog widths and such.

margin-left: 6? lost.. -_-;;

To the left, so... -6. You subtract to move it closer to the left&add to make it farther.
Make the margin-top (or add it in) 0px. That should bring it right up to the top... But you can use negatives (as stated before) to move it higher. It won't look good at the very top of the page because of the ad though, and you shouldn't removed that - It can get your xanga shut down.

Okay I got that down.. when I add a new right modcule (sp?) why does it move my new modcule and the font color changes?
I got my blog position correctly but it moves with the new modcule I put up.

When I said to move the navigation first, I meant ALL navigation. Because that's how it works (for xanga). And, uh, your new modules aren't in a div.
CODE
<b class=nav><center>[ Ha Le Phan & Chun Wong ]<br> September 10, 2005<br></center></b></b>
Change to this
CODE
<b><center>[ Ha Le Phan & Chun Wong ]<br> September 10, 2005</center></b><br>

what do you mean by ALL navigation? And I put the code you said.. and my font color is still black.
Here's the WHOLE code:

You move the entire navigational sections, all if more than one, before everything else. Then you move the blog. I guess you'll just have to define the font color then for that one. -shrug- Don't know why it's doing that..

Navigation sections = look and feel, home, sigh in and out, etc? AND the blog after the navigation section?
talcumpowder
Nov 15 2005, 10:32 PM
Yeah... The sidebar content. Where the navigational stuff goes. And the blog goes after that. -nod-

I put the side bar (info blah blah) on the top and blog next.. and it totally put the info top.. then banner.. then blog.. so i put the banner on top and it still came out with the blog all the way down...

You need to change the margins, obviously. Which is what you don't seem to get. That's been the entire basis of this thread, your margins are wrong.
