Look for {vb:raw template_hook.forumhome_above_forums}

Move it up about 6 lines so that it is above <vb:if condition="$show['sidebar']">

Hope that is what you were looking for.
Thanks a lot, works perfectly!

Hum so that's only when you enter the slap and me on IE. Very odd as it works well for me So if you don't see it in the archives, that mean it doesn't get submitted right ?

I don't think it's in the stylevar, it's certainly in the arcade mod additionnal css.

What really baked my cookies was that if I opened Firefox, and removed the /me chat, I could refresh Explorer and all was well. Firefox showed the /me text perfectly in the chat window and in the Archive so it did get submitted ~ Explorer simply stalled on submission (Little animated circle did it's thing forever and other users were unable to chat (I asked, they too were on Explorer). Explorer would also return to a functional state if I disable the /me command.

Nice huh?

You nailed it there! I opened ARCADE.CSS and as you probably expected, ALT1/ALT2 were in use. I removed both references and I can at least see the times and such now as they were black on my present black background.. .

(Now tempted to delete the entirety of ARCADE.CSS to see if some other illnesses go away...)
As usual, thanks!
