I'm trying to use the $totalonline thing to show the total number of people on and it doesn't display anything. Is there something special I have to do to get that to work?

<td class="alt1"><span class="smallfont">

When i add the second block, it goes next to the first block but not under it on IE. However on Firefox it all looks okay. Does anyone know what im doing wrong?

Heres my code:

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="200" align="left"> 

    <tr><td class="tcat">Account Info</td></tr>
   
<tr><td class="alt1">

<if condition="$show['member']">
<div style="border-bottom: 1px solid #5F5F5F; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-top: 4px;"><b>Username:</b> $bbuserinfo[musername]</div>

<div style="border-bottom: 1px solid #5F5F5F; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-top: 4px;"><b>Member ID:</b> $bbuserinfo[userid]</div>
