Template Confusion


MultiHosts

Recommended Posts

Hey all.

 

Have been working on a custom template for WHMCS. It's supposed to look like this, but instead looks like this.

 

The following erros have been spotted:

  • Strange black lines everywhere
  • Small gap before the first link on the navigation bar
  • Big empty spaces in various places (See page for details)
  • Footer displaying incorrectly

 

How can I fix the various errors that are occuring on the pages?

 

Thanks in advance.

The best tool I've seen for locating things like this is using Firefox as a browser with the Firebug plugin installed. This allows you to inspect your page and locate exactly what's responsible for displaying what you're seeing. It even allows you to edit the code to make (temporary) changes in real time so you can experiment with what it takes to fix it.

Tried using this tool, but it wassn't really a lot of help, allthough it will be very useful in the future when I start designing free CSS templates once again.

 

I still can't understand why there are massive gaps everywhere. EG above the logo, below and above the bit that says you are here, and in various other places.

 

I also can't work out why the footer isn''t displaying correctly.

 

Anyone able to help me out?

If you click on the word "inspect" you can then roll the mouse over various problem areas, and it will outline what is causing the gaps you speak of. If you then click the spot, it will highlight that in the code portion.

I'd suggest that's just what's needed to find this.
