Okay..I have a Diaryland site, but I find it easier to edit HTML on Geocities. So I made my website, and I really liked how it looks on Geocities, but then as soon as I transfer it over to diaryland, it messes up two of the major tables!! The correct website looks like: http://geocities.com/ivegotrhythm01/irisdesign.html except where it says "design by annay..the best ever :)" it should be %%entries%% in order to show up on diaryland. the finished product looks like this: http://iris-design.diaryland.com Can anyone help me with this? Also, I'm trying to make it so the table on the bottom right, the big table, so that it will scroll when I put text in it instead of cutting out the text like it did there. If you know how to do that, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you SO much!!


PS-Just in case you don't know, to see the HTML of these right click and click view source

Not very sure about the way the tables are messing up, since it should work if it looks fine on your geocities site, and you're just copying and pasting the code on your diaryland one.

But about the table that scrolls instead of letting the text run off, I think that instead you should put an inline frame there, a transparent one probably to keep the background and such.

okay so..on the inline frame code what does the src mean? like what is the .html file that i'm putting there?

<IFRAME name="inlineframe" src="yoururl.html" width=200 height=200 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 frameborder=0 scrolling=auto style="FILTER: chroma(color=#ff0000)" allowtransparency="true"></IFRAME>

Where it says src="yoururl.html" you have to make a new page, where you will put all your text and such you want in your inline. Then, you put that page url there. Make sure to specify the margins, so it wont go off =). Oh, and you would replace the table with the inline frame. I'm not sure if you can just add it inside the table, which you probably can, but it'd be easier I think just to replace it.
