something's wrong with my code..., ...but i don't know what Options

[emvguitar]

Okay. I made this code, and it doesn't seem to work. I know that I can make one because I made my underOATH one. (see ) But, I can't figure out what I did wrong to make this not work. And it definately doesn't work right. ( see ) Blog box is in the right place and is the right size. But, the blog area is weird. Only like one line of text per line, and the text is white. Can somebody tell me what's wrong?

problems you had:
instead of using this

.leftmoduletitlebar, .leftmoduleborder, .leftmoduleinterior, table.left, table.left TH, table.left TD

it's supposed to be this

CODE

.mainleft

to remove your left modules.

the only time you use "#" is before the hex color codes. you don't need it before every number (for example, the font size)

this removes the space to the left of your entries:

table.blogbody tr td {
/* this edits the left margin of blog */
width:1px;
padding-left: 1px;}

 the correct code is this:

CODE

.blogbody td { width:0px; padding-left:0px; }

the incorrect one was the cause of the "one text per line" problem.

and to remove the horizontal scrollbar, the width to the blogbody which was set at 410px was changed to 390px

all you need to do now is change the font colors where it says "color" under the .blogbody section to "font-color"

i hope that helped
