Xanga Skin Help, a few questions Options

[Jeng]

o0o i thought so, i just wasnt sure, thanks.
but still the way reili put it seems easier, but ..bleh what i said up there about it..she made it simpler but i just want her to put the codes in where they go and from there ill edit it it myself

[hi-C]

What properties do you want your stylesheet to define? I can help you out since she's not online right now

[Jeng]

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><div style="overflow: auto; width: ###px; height: ###px; margin-top: ###px; margin-left: ###px;"><br />This is the content of the sidebar, yo!<br /></div><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

where it says this is the content of the sidebar,yo///
like i want left modules..a navigation module and extra modules.

-what goes there..where it says this is the content of the sidebar,yo

[hi-C]

Well, some sort of content would go there, whether it be a table or just text.

Also, that's not a part of the stylesheet. The style sheet would define the look of what appears in the sidebar, if that makes sense.

[Jeng]

so the left modules part go under the css. then bleh ...
when reili comes online, then im just wondering if she would set up the css for me since she said she should of made it a style sheet. i think it would guide and help me better if she just set it up like she did in the first place which was simple but include the css

[Jeng]

OOPS sorry for the double post
hmm i guess ill make this post useful then.

QUESTION:
1] so..for the navigation part on the left module, do i have to position it to be on the left module, or will it already be there?

[hi-C]

If you've disabled the default modules, you'll have to position the new ones.

[Jeng]

okay well heres my code for the skin im still working on.

and heres the xanga [HERE]
my question/problem is that my blog is scrolling off the skin,what shuold i fix in the code to make it scroll itself in the skin? i kept fooling around with the nubmers in the last div,but its not really working

[talcumpowder]

Magin-top should be a rather high negative number. Usually somewhere in the thousands.
As for the rest of it.... The part where it says This is the content of the sidebar, yo. is whatever goes in the sidebar. Or navigation for that matter. Here, this is the coding for my current Xanga skin, see if you can play match-up. Just don't steal it word for word. -rolls eyes-
