Hello :) (Great Forum BTW).

I am working on a layout for a client, but im stuck. Its a band profile, so i understand everything goes in the BIO, but here is the problem:

I want to place a box (or a DIV) to cover up the General Info box so that i can add myown DIV there with some special info in it. I have tryed doing it using CSS and positioning the DIV absolute but when the screen is resized the DIV stays put, and to my knowledge relative positioning wont work.

Is there any way to do this?

I was thinking about using a DIV, and covering the whole of the current layout and pasting the HTML and CSS code into the BIO part of the page, which would mean i could edit the whole page as and when i need to, but im not sure if this would work.

Any help please ?

Well =) Use this code then

<style type="text/css">
.contacttable,.whitetext12,.nametext,.lightbluetex t8,.orangetext15,.blacktext12,.btext,.redtext,.red btext{display:none;height:0px;!important;visibilit y:hidden}
td td td td{border:0px;width:0px;text-align:left;}
table,td,tr{padding:0px;width:;background-color:transparent}
table table table{padding:1px;height:.01%;width:100%;}
table table,table table table table,table,tr,td{height:0px;!important;border:0px ;!important}
a.text,table div font a,table div div,.navbar font,tr td font{visibility:hidden;display:none;height:0px;!im portant;}
table table table table,table table table table td.text, td.text td.text table{display:none;}
td.text table table{display:inline;visibility:visible;}
table td table tr td.text table{visibility:hidden;}
table td table tr td.text table table,table td table tr td.text table table td.text{visibility:visible;}
</style>
in about me

It'll hide your profile in both IE and firefox, then you can start working on your div.

Also can try a custom made div from bbzspace.com

I;m sorry, Im more of a visual worker and tired, so this is all I can provide for now =(

Ok ive managed to use a DIV to overlay the lot, but my submit button and edit button in the edit profile part disapear, if i could have those available i could create a white new myspace from scratch.

^ To fix that problem i THINK you have to use 'safe mode' or something like that - google it and check.

yep your correct. Thanks for that, i can now make a whoooole new myspace layout.

There will be a few problems, 1 being the media player and the comments box, but i will implement a shoutbox sort of thing anyway. That way anyone can leave a post.

I know that you can put the comments in a scrollable div so I'm sure you can position that wherever you want in the style attribute with absolute positioning or whatever. What do you need to do with the media player?
