I'm attempting to add a streaming twitter badge to my band page as I've seen with other bands lately. I used codes from the "Creating a Custom Left Side" tutorial to try and position it originally, and when that didn't work I snatched the style codes from someone else's page. Both style codes move the badge around, but for some reason it removes the bio text from the bio section and attaches it to the bottom of the badge. Here's the code I came up with that isn't working:

CODE
<style>
.twitter { position: absolute; top: 730px; left: 50%; height: 0px; width: 0px; overflow: visible; background-color: 000000; margin-left: -25px; text-align: left; z-index:8;}
</style>

<div class="twitter">
<div style="width:176px;text-align:center"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" height="176" width="176" align="middle">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="never" />
<param name="allowNetworking" value="internal" />
<param name="movie" value="http://twitter.com/flash/twitter_badge.swf" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="flashvars" value="color1=0&type=user&id=159005302" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" src="http://twitter.com/flash/twitter_badge.swf" height="176" width="176" align="middle" wmode="transparent" flashvars="color1=0&type=user&id=159005302" quality="high" />
</object><br />
</div>


Any ideas on how to get it to stop pulling the bio text out of the bio section?

UPDATE:

OMFG after hours of trying to figure this out I finally found that if I put the twitter code AFTER the biography text (at the very end of all of the codes) then it does not mess with it. Is there something in the twitter code that says "hey, if there's any random text just chillin' after me, grab it and pin it to my butt!" ???

You can close this. I do still have an unresolved question in the "Making A Band Layout Version 2" thread though! Thanks
