Step 18 REACHED !!!!

Step 18 REACHED !!!!

That's right :) Last night I sold 2 more watches and that took me to a total of;
$644.85

So I'll take out the $4.85 and now my target is $1280.

In celebration, I'm making an offer to other doublers...
I have $5.83 USD balance in my paypal account. The first person who can tell me how to code my page so I have a table to the left that I can put things in...gets it !!
I want to keep the same page layout, but have the opportunity to put things down the side like ads or whatever :)
My page just uses the basic html coding, not the fancy new blogger layout.

I could work this out in Dreamweaver, but the simple fact is I'm just too lazy !

So, who can help ??

Rachel.

Congratulations Rachel! Nice to see you get there. You have worked hard!!

Sorry I can't help with the table.

I can help with the table. Just let me know how many columns/rows and any other info for it, and I'll send you the code. I'll even test it out in blogger for you.

WooHoo !!
Sounds great ! I just need a one column/row table so I can put things down the right hand side :)

I'll change my current column width so there is more room, but I'll also need to know where to put it.

my e-mail is rachel.a at xtradotcodotnz

Thanks !!
Rachel.

Hi Rachel,

I think what is driving your right column to the bottom is is the banner ad at the top and the Double your way banner at the bottom.

If they could be shortened it would allow the right column to come back to the top.

I will see if I can creat shorter banners for you and see if that fixes the problem.

I shortened the banner ads and put them here. You can just change the code in you template to the new code and see if they work for you.

If it isn't short enough we can redo them again.

As far as getting the sidebar onto the left hand side I will take a look at the code to see if I can figure that out.

If someone hasn't done it already that is.

All you need to do is where the code says the following is change where it says at the bottom from
float:left; to float:right;

Go down to this part of the code and then make the above changes.

Let me know if it works for you.

float:right;

I reread everything and I see what it is you are looking for, you want two columns one on the left "AND" one on the right as well.

I am not sure I know how to do that. Hopefully Loraine has figured it out for you. If I come up with something I will let you know.

Thanks X,

Yes, I just want to keep the blog as is, but be able to put stuff down the LHS. I'm guessing I need a table but just not sure what to do....

I'll work on it this weekend and let you know by email what I come up with. I need to do this, too, so this is a timely problem.

Hi Loraine,

With a little help from Arkad, I've actually got it !
When you edit your template in html in Blogger go to about 1/2 way down after all the parameters for the layout and under *body*, put;
*table width="150" border="0" align="left"*
*tr*
*th scope="row"**div align="left"*Place your ad Here !*/div**/th*
*/tr*
*/table*

I've put in * instead of <> hope you can understand it !

You can change the width of the column if you want.

Rachel.

Are you happy with the way it looks? Because it kinda messes up your banner (there's overlap). If not, I've emailed you an alternative that will put the second sidebar on the same level as the original sidebar. This way, it won't overlap the title banner. Let me know if you don't get it and want it.
