Layout issues!

[gazag]

Thanks Website Rob,

I have started on the errors but am stuck on how to edit the ones where a ">" is missing what file do i change? or why have i got 20 errors for the same thing??

Sorry i am a newbie! :)

i have trace the problem to my slider code!

The code i have in the define_main_page.php is as below

	
	  
<?php 	  
	  define(URL1,'http://www.example.com');
	  define(URL2,'http://www.example.com');
	  define(URL3,'http://www.example.com');
	  define(URL4,'http://www.example.com');
	  define(URL5,'http://www.example.com');
	  define(URL6,'http://www.example.com');
	 
	  define(IMAGE1,'01.jpg');
	  define(IMAGE2,'02.jpg');
	  define(IMAGE3,'03.jpg');
	  define(IMAGE4,'04.jpg');
	  define(IMAGE5,'05.jpg');
	  define(IMAGE6,'06.jpg');
	 
?>
	<script type="text/javascript" src="includes/templates/MY_CUST_TEMPLATE/jscript/jscript_easySlider.js"></script>

	<script type="text/javascript">
		$(document).ready(function(){	
		    
			$("#slider").easySlider({
				auto: true, 
				continuous: true,
				numeric: true
			});
			
		});	
	</script>
  

	
		<div id="slider">
			<ul>				
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL1 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE1 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL2 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE2 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL3 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE3 ?>"  /></a></li> 
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL4 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE4 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL5 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE5 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL6 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE6 ?>"  /></a></li>			
</ul></div>

Does anyone know how to edit it to solve my issues? I keep trying things but

This is the code that is causing the problem if you delete it - the category images align properly and if you delete only half of them the offset gets less each one you delete!

			<ul>				
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL1 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE1 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL2 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE2 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL3 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE3 ?>"  /></a></li> 
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL4 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE4 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL5 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE5 ?>"  /></a></li>
				<li><a href="<?php echo URL6 ?>"><img src="<?php  echo $template->get_template_dir('',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images').'/'.IMAGE6 ?>"  /></a></li>			
</ul></div>

Looking into it further it may be a css for the control numbers under the slider that is doing it!

I inserted this code above the /*warnings, errors, messages*/ in my stylesheet when i installed the slider into my front page.

I know it has got to be something to do with the text in red but .... this is making me

I seem to be talking to myself but i have solved my layout problem so i will post it to help others!

I inserted

<br/>

at the end if my define_main_page.php and it dropped the category images down so the lined up ok, they were lining up with the numeric controls pushing them to the right!

If anyone wants a slider like this one i can pack it up as a mod!
