I don;t have any mods installed on the forum, so we can safely rules out these - must have been a error by the person who skinned the skin for me - Thankfully this is now resolved - Thanks tbworld!
Sorry for double post:
I remember what could have happened, when I remove the code above, I get a brown box at the bottom, I believe that I wanted this box removing as it serves no purpose (that I can see) Is there any other ammendment I can do to the code to remove this brown bar, or is it something that has to stay in order for the rest of the page to fit within the template?
