**This issue is still not resolved!

After editing with the source code I found out that this is the culprit..

If I delete this code which is line1 in the source code:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Then the whole page works, including the vertical allign.

Unfortunatley this is just bbcode so I can't delete it from there...
What do I do?

Is there a way I can edit a template or something so all of the pages have this doctype instead?

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">

.Why is vbulletin using out of date doctypes anyways. The new 3.2 ones have all up-to-date html code running properly? haha >

EDIT: (ORIGINAL POST BELOW)

I made a simple html document where I had text, then a button, then more text.
I used the css property, "vertical-allign", to move the button down... it worked.

Now, when I tried to make a bbcode to do this the button doesn't move down. I copy and pasted the source code of the post with the bccode into a new html document and viewed it and the button was lowered! So I think vbulletins posting div tags or styles or something is messing with it? I've also tried position:relative;bottom:#; to move it down and it works in html but not in bbcode??? Any ideas/workarounds???

Here is the basic idea for the bbcode:

Code:

some text here<button style="vertical-allign:-10;">param text here</button>some text here

actual bbcode replacement:

Code:

<button style="vertical-allign:-10;">{param}</button>

Thanks!

***EDIT: Also on an interesting note, vbulletin will accept something like the built in css values, example:

Code:

vertical-allign:sub

But when I change "sub" to something even lower than subscript, such as "-20em" or "-10" it's as if the code doesn't even run through at all...

Code:

vertical-allign:-10

Try align w/o the extra L

orange gold · #3 01-06-2011, 02:49 AM

Sorry, that was a typo... in the real code there is no extra "l"

Anyways.. after editing with the source code I found out that this is the culprit..

If i delete this code which is line1 in the source code:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Is there a way I can edit a template or something so all of the pages have this out-of-date doctype that vbulletin uses replaced with this up-to-date one (seen below) instead?

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN">

You think XHTML 1 is older than HTML 3.2?

HTML 3.2 is W3C's specification for HTML, developed in early `96 together with vendors including IBM, Microsoft, Netscape Communications Corporation, Novell, SoftQuad, Spyglass, and Sun Microsystems.

This specification defines the Second Edition of XHTML 1.0, a reformulation of HTML 4 as an XML 1.0 application, and three DTDs corresponding to the ones defined by HTML 4.

This is not an out of date DOCTYPE. XHTML is different from HTML.

This article may help explain to you why vertical-align isn't working for you. Have you tried putting the button in a DIV yet and aligning the DIV with the inline style?

Oh. XHtml..
Anyways, if I put it in a div tag than the div will go to the next line.. I need it on the same line???
