Problems when LINKSMENU installed

davieb · Problems when LINKSMENU installed

Hi there.

http://enjoyingphotography.myfreeforum.org/login.php

The page above is where the problem occurs. When I use the original Subsilver template the page appears correctly. As soon as I put the LINKSMENU portal in the the page layout is screwed up. The only changes I've made are inserting the HTML as exactly as shown in the howto guide Literally cut and paste into the exactly points described) and adding the LINKSMENU stuff in the owners panel.

I'm guessing the HTML that has been put in is to blame seeing as how the page is ok on the unaltered Subsilver version but as I don't know enough about HTML to go and try to pick it out I'm hoping someone can assist.

Since the documented changes do work, unless you post the html you are now using, we cannot see what you have done.

OK I've pasted the html as it shows on the editing screens below

I think your :

I'm pretty sure for switches to work they do indeed need to be on thier own line.
