nature of problem: the category block on my index page isn't displaying correctly. It's adding another row and I'm not sure why it's doing that.
here's the code for my index page.
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : header -->
<div id="leftindex">
<div class="block">
<div class="tl"><div class="tr">
<div class="title">{info_title}</div>
</div></div>
<div class="content">{info_content}<br>{login_content}</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="middleindex">
<div class="block">
<div class="tl"><div class="tr">
<div class="title">Welcome!</div>
</div></div>
<div class="content">{welcome}</div>
</div>
<div class="block">
<div class="tl"><div class="tr">
<div class="title">{categories_title}</div>
</div></div>
<div class="content">{categories_content}</div></div>{news_content}
</div>
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : footer -->
I'd appreciate any and all help.
When you log in under Admin->Settings->Display settings, what is the number you have in
Number of Columns: ? If it's 3 change it to two and it should work.

I tried what you suggested all it did was turn my columns on the category page into 2 columns. it didn't seem to affect the index page at all.
I'm also viewing this site through IE7...maybe it looks all right on firefox?
Okay figured out the problem. Apparently having my site settings debug featured set to "on" made the skin do weird things.
So once I turned off the debug feature everything went back to normal.
That's because the header uses absolute positioning. I don't remember why I did it like that either...
At least you figured it out though!

Well the strange thing is I found out because I posted the error message and someone said to turn off the debugging feature, but I have no clue why I'm getting an error message if it doesn't actually cause trouble for the site. Well at least now I think I know all the scripts backwards and forwords. i was going a bit nuts trying to figure out what I did to make the skin change like that.
I've read enough warnings and errors posted to this forum to finally be able to recognize which ones are caused by turning debugging on. 😛
This was a warning and not an error, which is why you can have a message without actually having trouble for the site.
Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.
