COLDasICE
That is a cute page.. but nope cant help you.. haha.. Thats way too complex for me.. wacko.gif

Well basically she has a custom module and uses different scripts for all those fancy things. (Search and you can find many javascript tuts)

Looks like she provides the code for the image hover, the guestbook script is probably outsourced.. but also our mods for cooler stuff _smile.gif


Err.. I'll make a skin for this shifty.gif .. but I'm really lazy at the moment.

hmm wow her coding is very neat.. anyway.. I think she has premium. But without one, I guess you do it like this..
Take away xanga's original left modules, make your own, call an external css file to layer the image and just basically all css from there.


err.. I mistenterpreted you question to how to make a layout LOOK like that.

Anyway.. the image hover, although I have no idea what you're talking about cause it doesn't seem to work on my browser, is probably just simple onmouseover java.
edit - *smacks self* she provides the code for you as megare said stubborn.gif shoot me for not paying any attention. wacko.gif

She uses megabook for her guestbook, good idea. It's not xanga's, You've gotta d/l that, fix the coding, layout, upload it to a different site, and link to it from xanga.

Song chooser, you should find that mod easily..

huh.gif You can use div/div class regardless of whether you have premium or not laugh.gif She doesn't have a banner, and I don't think she took it out, because you should still be able to see the coding. Same with the original left module.. I could be wrong, maybe she has coding to take out all that coding blink.gif

She doesn't have premium, and theres a banner disabler at the bottom. Here's the code for the drop down jukebox, courtesy to javascript-page.com.

CODE
<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com -->
<form name=choose>
Music Menu:
<select size=1 onChange="midiplay(this);">
<option value="#">Click For Music
<option value="america.mid">America The Beautiful
<option value="cannon_d.mid">Cannon (key of D)
<option value="entrtanr.mid">The Entertainer
<option value="maplerag.mid">Maple Rag
<option value="pete_wlf.mid">Peter & the Wolf
</select>
</form>

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

document.write('<bgsound src="#" id=midijuke loop=1 autostart="true">');

function midiplay(what) {
 if (document.all)  {
   document.all.midijuke.src = what.options[what.selectedIndex].value;
 }

 else {
   alert("Sorry, but the Music Menu is only accessible through MSIE4.0 and above.");
 }
}

//-->
</script>
<!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->


You'll have to find a place to host your songs and make changes to the code to reflect their locations.
