Need Help Please....

TCE Killa · 02-12-2008, 12:17 AM

I am using this skin as my default skin on my forum, I have all the main template edits on this one and looks great. I have a problem though....

I have installed the Interactive Profile mod ages ago and I have only just noticed something.

Basically, when a user doesn't have a comment, the whole style looks a mess on that users profile... But when the user does have a comment, it goes back to normal. I have attachments of the images to show you what I mean.

If you could help me out with this, I'd highly appreciate it, thanks.

By looking at the screenshots im guessing there is a missing <td> or added one in the modifications.

Does this happen when all plugins are disabled?

Yeah it works aswell when you haven't got the comment and friend show bit in the MemberInfo template, I cut it out to see if it worked and it does.... So do I have to maybe look through and see where a <td> goes or doesn't go? Thanks alot man.

yeah mate that is your best choice.

A good way to find faults in code is to use the W3c validator.

I tried that website (W3c validator) and copy and pasted the template into where it said, and it said it doesn't support that kind of code, invalid. Any other ideas? Thanks alot man.

Does anyone have interative profiles installed on this Darkness skin??? Thanks alot.

Can u post the error u got please mate. Must be a problem with the DOC type

I click to validate input text from my template and it gives me this message:

This page is not Valid (no Doctype found)!

Instead of the whole template, do you know what I should put in? Thanks alot.

You will need something like this

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Yeah I have noticed when people take screenshots of templates, they look completely different to mine and more easier to configure. They have line numbers on the side etc.... Mine is just a standard template with just the text which is odd.

So do I put in that code first then copy and paste the template after and click submit? Thanks alot.

If im reading it right it wasnt there because he pasted the template code into the validator. That code should only be in the head, not every template in a style, as you know :P ...
