In reply to: I hate IE….sidebar misaligned…help please!Ok…
That sounds good. I did #1 and it still looks good in my browser. For #2 though, I’m not sure I’m seeing what you are seeing. The first sidebar item, (not “sidebardivs”) is a widget that is having issues of its own. The second is a search form, which is not a list at all, nor is it enclosed in a UL. Then the third is enclosed in LI and UL.
Am I missing something?
Yeah, and I still can’t check this in IE from my house, so if you don’t mind taking a minute to see if they render the same, that would be oh so bueno.
Thanks for your help.

In reply to: Put adsense in the midle of a post.That was a question that I asked in my post about how to place an image at an arbitrary point in the post.
Someone recommended using a filter….you can find out about those in the codex.
I am still trying to figure this out as well.

In reply to: Insert image at arbitrary point in post automaticallyAlso….while I was looking through the CSS for the theme…I noticed that there are classes under “post formatting” for .picleft and .picright…..here they are.
.picleft { float:left; margin:3px 14px 10px 0; border:7px solid #f2f2f2; } .picright { float:right; margin:3px 0 10px 14px; border:7px solid #f2f2f2; }
I’m not sure where I am utilizing these tags on the site right now. It seems as though if it is built in, I might be able to use it somehow…..but I’m unsure.

In reply to: Insert image at arbitrary point in post automaticallyOk…let me back up a second. And if this post makes me sound incredibly dumb….I apologize.
This is where my post is placed into my pages.
<div class="entry"> <?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page »</p>'); ?> <?php wp_link_pages(array('before' => '<p><strong>Pages:</strong> ', 'after' => '</p>', 'next_or_number' => 'number')); ?> </div>
Can I include the code that calls for a specific image tag somewhere in there? The code below is from my homepage; it calls the image up that has the key “blurb” from the custom fields section of the individual post.
<?php $values = get_post_custom_values("Blurb"); if (isset($values[0])) { ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/<?php $values = get_post_custom_values("Blurb"); echo $values[0]; ?>" alt="" /></a> <?php } ?> <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" class="title">
Is it possible to somehow combine this code with the previous one, in order to have an image left aligned at the beginning of the content section of individual posts? Or even better, to have it show up about halfway in to the post, still left aligned?
I looked at the filters section, and it may be over my head right now. If that’s the best way, I can give it a shot.
Thanks again….

In reply to: Creating three-collumn section underneath two collumn section…While that may be true…if I could make it do some of these things without having to pay $90….I would.
I’m not trying to stiff the Mimbo creators or anything. I’m just trying to use their rather impressive template, and give it my flair.
Any ideas?

In reply to: Excluding Categories from Recent PostsThat worked…it took me a second, because that section of the site uses an array to get the categories. I was able to add that to another section though…so it works.
Thanks….
Oh, and yes, I am using the Mimbo theme. I really like it. It’s taken a while to customize it just the way I want it, and I’ve got a little ways to go. Speaking of, I am about to post another forum question…if you can help, it would be greatly appreciated…
