I'm looking to work around an issue i've encountered since installing a skin to my forum. The skin was purchased from forummonkeys.com, the skins name 'versionj'. The issue I am experiencing is that when I click on either the 'search' or 'quick links' button on the navbar, the pop-up menu ends up being partially blocked as there is a flash banner below the navbar, see the example screenshot below:
Now, my idea to work around this as I have been advised that flash likes to be on top of any and everything, is to move the banner area ABOVE the navbar so it goes from this (current layout):
to this (preferred layout):
Now with that said, I know nothing about coding, but I can cut/paste/insert like nobody's momma! I have been tinkering with the versionj header template, and have been able to move the navbar below the banner section, but the other parts end up jumbled such as the red welcome block, ends up moving from its current position, to above the navbar - so i've left it be...
I am keeping my finger crossed, and hoping that by providing the header code, someone could PLEASE tell me exactly what I need to do to accomplish this...
thanks in advance!
Header code:
