Ooh while I have you here. :P
Calendar numbers missing There are very few comments on our entries. But there are some there. However, our FUN Forum Calendar Page appears blank with NO numbers in the day squares. Why is that and can we alter the code to include them?

Header/banner rotation We would also like to create other headers (banners) and rotate them in. Meaning when someone refreshes the page the banner changes. What code would we write for that and where would we place it?

MetaData As mentioned in the original posting we would like to change the format for the metadata.

Currently it is too big and appears messy to me. (click link for example)

She placed the tags at the top of the page with the mood theme. Which we want. But, I would like the mood theme box to precede the tags.
1: How would I do that?
2: Her text is larger than I would like. How can I make the tag text smaller?

links in the header
Could I place a link for tags and memories in the header when we finally remove the previous and next entry from that area? Or even create a sticky for these link backs somewhere?

Black font color appearing at random
bus thread - at the end where we made changes and linked to how to contact Cindy.

summer fun thread - starts around the bus, around the Lincoln video and the note from moderators.

Now Selene who created the post can't see any black text in preview or when posted. But everyone else who has viewed the post has complained to us in person. I have no idea how to help her correct something we can't see in preview or completed posting. It is very odd. Do you see black text in those posts?

HELP! lol :P

Oh, and your black font issue - when/if you paste content into the Rich Text Editor (update page) from Microsoft Word, it brings along invisible "mark up" that only becomes visible once you switch to "html" view and see all of the code that allows your posts have things like bold text and centered alignment. That black text has a font tag around it telling LJ to make the font black and it came from Word or whatever editor you used to write the post before you pasted it into LJ's update page.

Hmm, that is odd. I NEVER use Rich Text Editor. I type my own HTML. So I wonder why it would pull that "mark up" or how it would. I do have a format for posting which I wrote which includes all the HTML to create a post (i.e. LJ cut, post titles, prewritten mod note for each post ect). I use it to create every post. It is a word doc. But where these errors occur have nothing to do with that actual format as they are appearing around text that is written and inserted/added to the format. And it seems to happen around links.

Now I work with Selene who is new to Live Journal. I will have to ask her if she is using Rich Text editor to edit my posts. She does proof my posts for typos. Perhaps she is using RTE when proofing and that causes this issue. Because it doesn't appear on all of them. Just a select few. I am completely confused by this. I always wondered if this issue happened because I posted the content and she went in after and edited it. I cannot see it on my end. Everything looks white to me. Perhaps because I'm the original poster? ::shrugs:: Clueless here.

But at least you've given us something to think about and watch...

I was super excited to come back to LJ this morning (4:14a.m. here) to find you and Selene finally got the previous 20 entries to work. That is a HUGE accomplishment for us.

And I read that if we want to stack the metadata on the left hand side we will need to create a layer? I appreciate the links to the tutorials on that issue.

You've been a real sport here. So many issues to look at and offer advice on. Thanks for helping a couple of noobs fix their code. :P
