positioning modules Options

[venti-anemoi]

Hi. Need a little help here. I made a skin...... sort of....... and I've got the blog part down. I'd like to keep the things that normally show up in the left-side modules, but move them to the right side.

Here's what I have so far:

#pnlEnabled table, #htmleditor, #lblTimeZone, #pnlEprops, #rblEprops
/* width of the comment page */
{width:399px;}
.leftmoduletitlebar, .leftmoduleborder, .leftmoduleinterior, table.left, table.left TH, table.left TD, table.navigation, table.footer
{display: none;}
</style>

line-height:12px;

letter-spacing:1px;
text-align:justify;}

table.footer TD {
/* this makes the footer at the bottom centered */
text-align: center;}

a:link, .footernav.link, a.footernav:link, a.footernav:active {
color: #CC6600;
text-decoration: none;}

a:visited, a.footernav:visited, {
/* edits the links that the user has visited */
color: #CC6600;
text-decoration: line-through;}

a:hover {
/* edits when user mouseovers the links */
color: #CC6600;
cursor: crosshair;
text-decoration: none;}

table.blogbody {
/* this edits the other the place where the blog is */
border: 0px solid COLOR;
background-color: transparent;
width:558px;}

table.search TD, table.announcements TH {
border: 0px solid #FFFFFF;
}
table.navigation, table.main, table.footer {
/* the width of your blog with modules */
width: 167px;
}
hr {
/* horizontal divider */
border: 1px solid #FF9933;
}
</style>

So I want to move the left-side modules to that area under "navi." Except I have no clue how to do so.

Help.......?

You will have to redo your modules using custom modules and then position that using a div layer.

[venti-anemoi]

...okay... um... and how do you do that......?

[venti-anemoi]

help......? anyone.....?

[sweetxsimplicity]

Please don't double post!

You use the Custom Module code which can be found in Xanga Scripts and use the div layer code with a seperate ID then your blog to position it.

It sounded like he/she just wanted to move the default left module to the right. Not create a custom module. If so, then here's the script to move the left module to the right.

sorry for double posting......

I looked in the tutorials section in webmaster's corner to see if they had anything about div layers there. They did...... but it only seems to work with websites, not xanga. I get how to make custom modules, but i don't get how to position them using div layers. Every time I try to use it, the modules end up in the place where the blog is when I want it to be on the right side.

So this is what I have.....

I just put in random numbers, by the way......

So, does anyone know how to change it so that it'll end up outside of the area where the blog is?
