Underline/Entry width Options

[Luv2Smoove]

Whenever I input the double underline coding, it won't work. I copied and pasted it right from this site and I'm sure it's worked for other people but it's not working for me.

Also, for my entry, the width just randomly shrunk. I didn't change the numbers but now it's smaller.

My Xanga

Can somebody please look at it for me and help me?

[Pulchritude]

hmm can u paste all your codes here?

[Luv2Smoove]

for my custom header? or everything?

[talcumpowder]

Try adding text-decoration: underline; to the code.

[Pulchritude]

uhh both.. use a seperate codebox for each section

here it is: under custom header

.blogbody u, .standard u, p u, u {
border-bottom: 1px dashed #8dc63f;
font-weight: underline;

and as for the width, I'm not exactly sure what to put. It was fine and it was as wide as the box but it just got narrower for some unknown reason.

the underlinging code doesnt work for you cause you forgott to add the first part of the code the code u have is the second half.

http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=65255

read the directions carefully

[Luv2Smoove]

SHEESH!!! ok. Sorry I'm a beginner... :/

do you have any suggestions for the blog width?

[talcumpowder]

Try about 420px... To start. And I don't understand how you'd know it shrunk, you don't have a full line of text in the entry.
edit//nyah-nek0 she did post the webstats..
^ I know, I just didn't edit them.

[Pulchritude]

uhh try adding this..

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><style type="text/css"><br />.custom{<br />width: 200px; <br />height: 200px; <br />z-index:100; <br />overflow: visible; <br />border: px #000000 solid; <br />background: #ffffff; <br />}</style><br /><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

or i think some of your codes are making your blog do that so take each code one by one and put it back in one by one.

[Luv2Smoove]

I did have a full line of text...and I added another one. It just wasn't a public post but it is now.

The double underline code works now =D Thank you.

But do you see what I mean about the width??

[Pulchritude]

your welcome but i think the width of your blogs look fine but how can it just shrink without doing anything? Did you touch something in your codes?

[talcumpowder]

Looks fine. It's about twenty pixels over from the left edge, but that's because your div layer isn't close enough to that side.

[Luv2Smoove]

Someone from createblog went in (to my site) and fixed some things but when she was finished, the blog started from one end (of the dotted horizontal line) to the other end. The sentences/words were as went as wide as the area for the blog. And what I'm not understanding is why.

Look, I know what it looked like before (not signed in)and I didn't go in to do anything. When I came back to my site (signed in) it was more narrow. I'm just trying to fix it. I tried the 420 px and nothing has changed.

I'm not sure what happened :/

[talcumpowder]

Then keep fixing the width. You might want to change the size of your div layer too, if all else fails.
edit//... It might not work, but width: 100%;

[Pulchritude]

did you try asking that person to see what he/she changed? and maybe try asking thats person if they can help fixing it?
