I'm back again! And I was doing so well this time around, but I'm running into a couple of snafus

1. You can change the colors and options of the nav strip through Customize Journal Settings. Or did you need to set that through the theme layer instead?

2. The HTML is working in your sidebar titles. At least, I see:
I thought html worked and
Seriously, why doesn't this work?

3. Wow, the Hanafuda theme has some weird CSS I've not seen in any other stylesheets. Take out your #content{} line and add this:
#header, #home #header {margin-bottom: 0}

4. According to this, IE6 doesn't support fixed positioning.

1. Yeah, I wanted it in my theme layer if at all possible. It's mostly in case I want to share the layout, but I was wondering if it was even possible.

2. Yes, but specifically image tage, a hef tags, and font tags cause a compiling error.

Compile error: line 117, column 19: Unexpected token found. Expecting: [TokenPunct

The message may not be intuitive, but the compiler is telling you exactly what's wrong: it doesn't understand what "http" means in this context. It's expecting a semi-colon but getting "http".

117: $title = "LinkyLink";

The compiler reads this as $title = " $title = """LinkyLink""";

Or, the same thing you're doing with your "content" sections. =P

Sorry, I forgot the nav strip settings...

set custom_control_strip_colors = "on_gradient";
set control_strip_bgcolor = "#xxxxxx";
set control_strip_fgcolor = "#xxxxxx";
set control_strip_bordercolor = "#xxxxxx";
set control_strip_linkcolor = "#xxxxxx";

Awesome awesome awesome! The error code was just greek to me, but I actually understand what you said there! Whoo, progress! :D

Thanks a lot Mike, you're great as per usual.

Hey Mike, can you take a quick look at my image map for my header? I can't figure out what's going wrong with it.

I put the first part in teh custom CSS section, and the rest at the end of the layout. I've done this with two other layouts with no problem, but now it's all kind of borked.

It looks like you missed the end " after the URL in this line:

[stickykeys633]

Okay, I fixed that (thanks!) but the map for "Then" has mostly recent entries, and then underneath it there's Calendar which is how it should be. All of my measurements are right, but I'm not sure why they're sitting on top of each other.

Also, is there a way to add my moodtheme into my theme layer? Or is it only accessible through the create a mood theme area?

[av8rmike]

No, I'm pretty sure there's no way to control the mood theme through layers. They're separate parts of the code.

I was away for a few days this weekend, so I didn't get a chance to look at anything. Did you get the links the way you wanted?

[stickykeys633]

I did, thanks!

It seems to be an IE 6 error, and it doesn't effect functionality so I'm okay with it!
