I've been having issues with Freewebs, so I've been working on getting my site transferred to Bravenet. The main problem I'm having is with the ads they have. How have those of you who use this site gotten them to stay on the top and bottom, and not be in the middle of the site?

I'm not sure what you're talking about. Are you using a template or just winging it with your own HTML?

I'm doing my own HTML. I can figure out how to work the layout around the top adverts, but the links they require are causing issues.

I'm not sure there is a way to get around their required links without buying a domain, so I don't know how to help you there. As for them being in the middle instead of the top and bottom, that may be a problem with your div size or page wrapper. Can you screencap it for me so I can see what it looks like?

Code:
<html>
<head>
<meta>
<title>Black Liquorice</title>
<meta>
<meta>
<link>
<script> </script>
</head>
<body><DOCTYPE>
<html>
<head>
   <title>untitled</title>

   <style>
      ul#sBar { list-style-type: none; text-align: center; margin: auto; padding: 0px; height: 29px; margin-bottom: 10px; width: 728px; background-color: #fff; border: 1px solid #dfdfdf; }
      #sBar li { list-style-type: none; margin: 0px; padding: 0; float: left; }
      #sBar li img { float: left; border: 0px;}
      #sBar li strong span.checkItOut { color:#0000ff; font-size: 17px; font-family: arial, helvetica; font-style: italic; text-decoration: underline; }
      #sBar li strong { float: left; margin: 6px 0px 0px 5px; font-size: 17px; font-family: arial, helvetica; cursor: hand; }
      #sBar li.trial { padding: 0px; margin: 0px; float: none;}
      #sBar li.trial img { float: right;}
   </style>
</head>

<body>
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center">
   <tr>
      <td align="center" valign="top">
         <ul id="sBar">
              <li><a href="http://www.bravenet.com/"><img src="http://assets.bravenet.com/common/images/shell/small_logo.gif"></a><strong><span>Hey Webmasters!</span> <span>New Photo Album Service Launched -</span> <span>Check it out!</span></strong></li>

         </ul>
      </td>
      </tr>
   <tr>
      <td align="center" valign="top">
         <div align="center">
            <script></script><noscript><iframe><img src="http://mercury.bravenet.com/rover/d?dbfile=SPONSORBAR_DB&serv=hosting-sites" alt="" border="0"></iframe></noscript>
            <div></div>

         </div>
      </td>
   </tr>
</table>
<script></script>


That's what I have before the HTML in my thing starts on my website's Page Source.

That's what I have after my footer on my website's Page Source.

I'm by no means HTML savvy, but I'm pretty sure there's an alignment thing in there somewhere that anchors them at the top and the bottom. You might just be missing a closing tag somewhere.

Yeah, I know they're required. I don't really have issues with that, because I can fit my layout around the top ones.

This is what it looks like at the moment:

All I'm really trying to do is get the "web hosting/powered by" stuff all on the bottom. This is irritating. :P And freewebs stopped being a pain...stupid web hosts. Maybe it heard me threatening it.

:teehee: Silly webhosts. I actually like bravehost a WHOLE lot better once you get the hang of using it. It's really a breeze after that, all you have to do is tweak a few things here and there.

Oh dear, that does seem to be a problem. Hm. It's actually been doing the same thing with a .org website I made for a Cub Scouts troop and I'm not entirely sure how to fix it. There, though, it's all squished and off to the side.
