custom modules, div layering Options

[Amie91280]

What code can I use to move my custom modules to a seperate area than my blog space? I made a skin with a box just for the custom modules and I can't get them in there! They just go in with the blog no matter what I try. I'm pretty sure I need to make a div layer for them, but I can't find anything about it on here. There must be a way because I've seen sites with the modules seperate from the blog. Please help! Thanks!

Here's my site if I wasn't clear enough : Clicky

I'm trying it and it's not working. Nothing is showing up. I put the code at the end of my custom header. I tried it in website stats too and it doesn't work in either. What am I doing wrong? It also put the Xanga add at a weird spot. It used to be above the skin, but now it's on my blog space.

You realize you're suppose to edit the code right? So you can position it..

Post your codes.

I did edit it and I tried different numbers and it's not showing up. Right now I have it set as the same height and margin top as my blog area. I can't even see the modules to fine tune them or anything. Here's the code I'm using:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><div style="position:static; margin-left: -20px;margin-top: -401px;border: 0px solid #FFFFFF; width: 190px; height: 394px;background: none; overflow: auto"><br /><br /><table border="0" width=100%><br /><tr><br /><td colspan=2><br /><b class=nav>About Me</b><br /><tr><br /><td colspan=2><br><br />Stuff about yourself…here<br />Stuff about yourself…here<br />Stuff about yourself…here<br />Stuff about yourself…here<br /><br /><tr><br /><td colspan=2><br><br /><b class="nav">Navigation</b><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/">Xanga</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/signin.aspx">Sign In</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/logout.aspx">Sign Out</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/private">Home</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/claf">CLAF</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/Private/subs.aspx">Your Subs</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/guestbook.aspx?user=YOURXANGAUSER">Guestbook</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/profile.aspx?user=YOURXANGAUSER">Profile</a> (<a href="http://www.xanga.com/Private/profilebasic.aspx">Edit</a>)<br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/private/tracking.aspx">Your Comments</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/Private/feedback.aspx">Feedback</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com/Private/SubscribeTo.aspx?user=YOURXANGAUSER" target="blank">Add Me</a><br><br /><tr><br /><td colspan=2><br /><b class="nav">Subscriptions</b><br /><tr><br /><td><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><td><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /><a href="http://www.xanga.com">link</a><br><br /></tr><br /></table><br /></div><br /><div align="center" class="blogspace"><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

I haven't modified anything but the positioning yet. Thanks for any help!


Edit: I got them to show up, but now they're on top of my blog entries. What do I need to change?
