I have 3 blocks that are giving me trouble.

The first 3 on the left side to be precise  The top one, translation was showing, but now isn't and the next two are overlapping.  Here is how they are configured if anyone can assist me please.

1. is translation flags that are in a html + BBC block, Use frame from theme

2. Latest Videos, linked photo in html + BBC block, Use frame from theme

3. Menu, menubox, Use frame from theme (also tried it with use title only)

In the upper block code you could try adding a couple line breaks after you last line of code...

I have done this once our twice to achieve alignment.

Sorry to say that didn't work.  I deleted the tranlation block however, and did the block again and now that shows.

looks to me like your missing a closing TD tag somewhere. a </td>

I think I have narrowed it down that it is with the menu.  I tried a different style menu block and everything lined up fine.  I don't know what that symbol means or where I should look for it.

If you do not close tags properly in a block, it will 'bleed' into the the block below, or overlap as you say.
You do need to close any html tags.

I don't know what you mean by "close tags".  How do I do this in the menu manager?  How do I do that anywhere?


Zetan

When you use html code, or any of the Block Code Snippets here at TP, You must close the tags.

a tag will open with:

<a href="blahblahblah><code here>

You must then close it with:

</a>


Or



<div align="center"><img src="picture.jpg">


Then close the tag with:

</div>

So it looks like


<div align="center"><img src="picture.jpg"></div>

The problem is you don't set up the menu through the menu manager with code.  It is already part of TP so you just fill in the blanks, sort of.

I went back to the other menu I was using.  It is actually one that I set up after seeing it here.  I didn't want to use it anymore because there is too much space between each line and takes up too much space, but I will survive.

Thank you for the help.

Could you post a link to your site, I seem to have misunderstood what you were asking.
