Messenger Stuff Community Forums - hmm... html/css help

sorry i cant define it anymore... anyway, im constructing a page for my guild within Guild Wars to which i have just returned as i went inactive, but now ive come back because of the release of factions. Anyway, here is a link to the page... from there you will be able to see the coding.... its al valid, but theres a problem. The actual holder thats supposed to hold the nav and events bar, plus a bit about content i havent decided isnt sizing itself up. I havent defined a size and ive also tried putting it on 100%, all to no avail. Btw, the 'holder' is the think black bit under the banner; its supposed to contain the other divs, but for some reason it doesnt. Can anyone see whats wrong with my code? thankies

That will just allow the amount of text entered. Set it to px to fill up more of the page

Or if it is a div within a div it will fill it's outer div.

thats just it, it wasnt doing that, that was the problem. Sorry, it wasnt explained properly

, as for the problem, @hmed over at msghelp.net solved the problems... thread

thanks anyway!

nice site btw

EDIT: did you know that your main site is f*cked up?? its including your guild wars site

~~why?!?! the servers a bit dodgy, but trax is hosting me for free so i can't complain~~ ah i see... that's me accidentilly copying one of the GW files over to the main directory... oopsie

thanks for pointing that out andyman!!

EDIT: ive just posted a different thread, the website divs are mis-behaving alot... ill post what i posted on msghelp.net...

ok, this is one weird problem, and hopefully my last with this site... strangely enough, the div's in my code mis-behave and mis-place themselves all over the page, all on a random basis..

what the page is supposed to look like:

first problem:

second problem:

third problem:

all my code is valid as well (well, the xhtml has warnings because i am using the color=".." tag, but that should affect the divs, its in a <hr> tag)

any ideas what would be causing this?? thanks...

wtf

i hate it when divs don't do what you want them to

EDIT: btw seems to work as it should (ie like the screenshot) for me in ff

yeah... i ended up fixing it... i put the map divs into a container div, then changed the css display:table; it seemed to fix the problems...
