Please help footer coding problem

[VK3MTR]

Hi

I added activated the drop down box for different style options to the blue strip in the footer.

However in doing so the links Contact Us - The Rolex Forums - Admin - Mod - Archive - Top are now all bunched up on the right hand side of the table/page.

I've spent a lot of time trying to fix it but I just don't have the knowledge.

Here is what it looks like
87534

Here is the code
<!-- /content area table -->

<form action="$vboptions[forumhome].php" method="get">

<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" class="tfoot" align="center">
<if condition="$show['microstats']"><!-- {microstats} -->
</if>
<tr>
<if condition="$show['quickchooser']">
<td class="tfoot">
<select name="styleid" onchange="switch_id(this, 'style')">
<optgroup label="$vbphrase[quick_style_chooser]">
$quickchooserbits
</optgroup>
</select>
</td>
</if>
<td class="tfoot" align="$stylevar[right]" width="100%">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong>
<if condition="$show['contactus']"><a href="$vboptions[contactuslink]" rel="nofollow" accesskey="9">$vbphrase[contact_us]</a> -</if>
<if condition="$vboptions['hometitle']"><a href="$vboptions[homeurl]">$vboptions[hometitle]</a> -</if>
<if condition="$show['admincplink']"><a href="$admincpdir/index.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[admin]</a> -</if>
<if condition="$show['modcplink']"><a href="$modcpdir/index.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[mod]</a> -</if>
<if condition="$vboptions['archiveenabled']"><a href="archive/index.php">$vbphrase[archive]</a> -</if>$template_hook[footer_links]
<if condition="$vboptions[privacyurl]"><a href="$vboptions[privacyurl]">$vbphrase[privacy_statement]</a> -</if>
<a href="#top" onclick="self.scrollTo(0, 0); return false;">$vbphrase[top]</a>
</strong>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Many thanks for any tips :o:o:up:

Hi FRDS

I tried the change you suggested, and even deleted history, forms etc. so that the coding changes appear on screen.
However the links are still bunched up on the right hand side of the table.

The microstats is throwing it off. It's a table cell thing - take a look in your page source. Microstats needs to be colspan=2 or something like that (I have no idea how many columns there are).

[VK3MTR]

Thanks for the advice Lynne. I tried your suggestion but without success.

[SEOvB]

actually, take microstats completely out of the table and see if that fixes it.

If you remove it completely, save the template go look at its fixed, go back in and add the microstats code either before the table starts or after it ends.

Can we see the actual page source for that part of your page? That would help. Or a link to the forum.
