Okay, well I usually change my profile layout every month or so. I started off doing simple colour change until Div Overlays suddenly sprung up and had a go at them. I've done 3 or 4 in the past and had no problem using a couple pieces of code from tutorials to hide the default and then create the overlay.
I spent about 2 hours tonight designing my "new" profile in Photoshop and then spent a further 2 hours coding it all myself (I hate using the "Save for web" option when using it for the HTML... something grows longer, like a text box and EVERYTHING will stretch...). Everything is fine, had a couple problems but ended up solving it all by creating tables within tables etc. I just tried to upload all the new code and the only thing that showed up was the background colour and text between "<p>" tages (which I used for content headers). I'm not the brainiest of the brainest when it comes to anything but I like to have a good go. If I cn find a way of simplifying it for myself I will, which is why I didn't set up H1 tags and all the rest. Seems I've been checking the div overlay tut on here for the past couple days (when I was thinking about changing my profile again) I wondered if anyone could help me out. Heres the HTML I was using (I havent posted the overlay set up because I think I was putting that in wrong anyway), any idea why no background images or text (otherthan the text between <P> tags) wouldn't come up? CODE <style type="text/css"> FONT{ font-size:10pt; font-variant:normal; font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:none; text-decoration:none; color:#FFFFFF; } P{ font-size:12pt; font-variant:normal;
