How, in a xanga layout..., there's a specially made place for posts Options

[muchtomydismayxx]

I can't seem to figure out how to get my posts into that specially located spot.
Can anybody help?

[lovescream]

Um... uh.. wha? Specially located spot? o.O Are you using a div layout? or.. what? because.. yeah, you're confusing me.

[muchtomydismayxx]

like... well, like my xanga:

www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=muchtomydismay_xx

see? under the angel? my post is above it, and i have a feeling it should be below...

[lovescream]

lol, it should be below. It seems like you have 1 div.. no?
How many divs do you have currently?
or.. just paste up your code. remember to use codebox.

[crashingg]

im confused too..

if you want to make a new post for your xanga --
1) sign into xanga
2) after you sign in, you'll be redirected to your site
3) you should see a box that says
NEW WEBLOG ENTRY - PUBLIC PREVIEW - GET xTOOLS
4) click NEW WEBLOG ENTRY and start typing your entry then click submit

http://www.xanga.com/Private/xtools/xtoolsclassic.aspx that is the link for NEW WEBLOG ENTRY if you cant find it

yes, you have two divs.

In the beginning of the code, where it says

CODE

<div style="position:static; margin-left:-10px;margin-top: -150px;border: 0px solid #000000;">

edit the numbers where it says margin-left: [NUMBER] and margin-top: NUMBER. to whatever numbers.. play around with it.
