i just dont see what's going on; i have a huge couple of black blocks underneath the myspace ad, and i just dont get it!

please help

[miyashu]

In your About Me, find this bit in your code. It's near the top:

CODE

textarea, input {font-family:arial; font-size: 11pt; color: 000000; background-color:9c1c1b; border:1px solid  9998c0; cursor:none;}

Erase that part. And replace it with this:

CODE

textarea, input {font-family:arial; font-size: 11pt; color: 000000; background-color:9c1c1b; border-width:1px; border-style: solid; border-color: 9998c0; cursor:none;}

The problem was, that you need to be more specific with borders (otherwise Myspace screws them up and makes them giant-like). Instead of just putting in 'border: 1px solid COLORHERE,' you need to have the following:

border-width:1px;
border-style:solid;
border-color:COLORHERE;

oh wow, such a little thing!
