Slideshow Location

[rparent]

Could anyone tell me what I need to do to get the slideshow to move up and become level with the Photo of the month box on the right? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
We'd need a link to the gallery so we can view the CSS & HTML to be of help. I checked you're "root" gallery, and there's not a slide show.

rparent,
I found your slideshow at http://pbase.com/rparent/main

OK, have looked at your code. You have a normal table to start it off
but you need to add a parameter to your "<td> to vertically align
the first column at the top.

And then you can add breaks to make it lower.

Example:

<TABLE cellpadding="9" border=0 width="50%">
<tr>
<td valign="top">

<br><br>

(Edited to add back in the "<tr>" I forgot!

Dang,
Sorry about not posting the link. It probably would have helped.

andrys,
Thanks alot for your help. Got it where I want it now. Thanks again.

rparent, glad it's working for you.

Nice variety of trains!

Thanks Andrys! I have another question. How can I add borders around my slideshow and the content on the right like how you have it on your gallery page?

Thanks Andrys! I have another question. How can I add borders around my slideshow and the content on the right like how you have it on your gallery page?

In your Table statement that I slightly modified above, change
border=0
to
border=1 (or larger, depending on what you want)

In other words, from what we see in the note above, you'd change that to
<TABLE cellpadding="9" border=1 width="50%">

I use the border option for my 'main galleries' abtravels page
but I don't use a border for my actual pbase home page.

Just experimenting.

I think it works nicely on galleries where I have more redundant
scenes, like Gold clouds

Some will want fatter borders, and you'd change it to '3' or '5'
or whatever in that case.

Thanks Andrys. That was easy enough. But I noticed the border looks funny. Would changing something around in my CSS fix that or is it html related?

I'm no CSS expert. Someone else will be able to help you with
that. Yardbird worked on that stylesheet but others will be able to
figure it out.

But in just plain HTML,
Your border color is white-ish on your stylesheet, in IE
Greyish in Firefox.

The border being '5' will make it fatter and here it's doing a
3-dimensional thing on the left which is why it looks like that. You might
try a small simple line of '1' or change the border properties in your CSS
to your liking... (or go back to no border).

To minimize the prob until you get CSS help, try changing your HTML
a bit to
=======
<table border="0" bordercolor=black cellpadding="10" cellspacing=0 width="50%">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
=======

Then, IE won't have that glaring white border.

Sorry I can't be more helpful there.
