I need some Help adding a chat box to my xanga. I have a chat box, but with my current skin, all the thing does is screw up my xanga and it isnt even on there. I would like it to be below my posting area, so if someone could help, that would be great!

Heres my xanga- www.xanga.com/lpdrummer


I know thats probably not enough info, so just tell me what else you need and Ill post it


Thanx!

Well, firstly, the images server is down, so that's why your skin isn't showing up. Secondly, if you want to put in a chatterbox, place the code in the webstats.

OK The image should be back up, but when I put the code in the webstats, it puts it
where I type all my entries and stretches the site.

Heres where I got the skin- http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php...topic=50564&hl=

hmmm...I think if you placed it within a div in your webstats, it should turn out alright.

Divs are used to position things on your site. If you look at the code you're using, you'll see that there are two divs. But yeah, if you put this at the top of your webstats, I think it should work:

CODE
<div align="center">Chatterbox code here</div>

OK Now it works and is at the bottom of where I post. But is there a way to have it centered below the skin? Cause where it is now, ya can't really see it..

BTW, I couldnt get the code you posted until I quoted you-it didnt show up on the actual forum.

Hmmm...maybe if you put it in a div right underneath the image map. See in the code where it says "</map>," place it underneath there. You'll probably have to change the margins of the other divs in order for everything else to appear correctly.

An alternative is to place the chatterbox code in the div for your subscriptions. That would probably work better and maybe not mess with the other div.

Perfect! Thank you! Although the first one centered itself below the image, the text dragged itself down with it, but the 2nd one works fine!

Except I think it takes a little longer to load now... shifty.gif


EDIT: I added in a site meter at the bottom of my posts also.
