Re: Entering code appropriately?

Not quite sure what you want...you want to keep the left and right columns, and have the form box in the center? So you want it to be a middle column? Just add another <TD> in between the two columns.

If you don't want 3 columns, another option would be to add another <TR> with a <TD COLSPAN=2> below the left and right column row.

If that's not what you want either, I think the only other way would be a floating layer...of course, I could be wrong...

Ooops, I forgot to attach a picture so that you can see what I was talking about. I'm happy with the current color scheme. I think adding a few breaks might just make the problem worse (making the right and left columns even longer)

I want to keep the left and right columns (board code) intact and short, while adding the form dead center. Thus picture will give you a better idea. Thanks!

I have a message board, vBulletin, which I would like to add a small simple form to have users sign up for a newsletter at the top.

I've added the code and all works fine, but it just doesn't look right. I've tried various ways to do this all resulting in the same distorted view.

I would like the form box to be dead center. Also, you'll notice what it does to the code on the right. The "welcome back" and "the current time" lines are supposed to be one just below the other, with my code added they are making a huge space between them. Here is the code I added:

*****

Welcome to our newest member, <a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$newuserid">$newusername</a><br>
<b>Enter email address to receive US Message Board Newsletter</b>
<form action="http://www.myboard.com/cgi-bin/mojo/mojo.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="flavor" value="subscribe">
<input type="hidden" name="list" value="usmess">
<input type="text" name="email" value="email address" size="20">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>


</smallfont></td>
<td align="right"><smallfont><br>

The time now is $timenow.<br>
You last visited: $bbuserinfo[lastvisitdate].

*****

Anyone know what I can do to make this look better?

Thank you!

p.s. the portion in bold letters is what I've added to the code.
