Hi Lilly, see if this fairs any better:

http://practicewriter.com/vu/?4CA45

(Since Practice Board is down, we'll try this one. There's an "Edit this document" link at the very bottom to see the HTML.)

Good Morning Neil!
Thanks for the help with the practice board. That looks about right except there is a white box at the bottom of my template that shoudn't be there...is that for the scrolling gallery?

Ok, the borders look good on the practicewriter, but in my store listing as shown on ebay, the gold is squishing out the red layer. Any suggestions on how to fix that?

Also, should I start this thread over with the practicewriter link instead of my copy/pasted html...it's skewed the whole thread out wide.

Lilly

Hi Lilly,

That's curious about the scrolling gallery. In Firefox it shows up in Practice Writer, but in IE it does not. My thinking is it could just be a limitation of Practice Writer, as the code for the gallery hasn't changed.

Have you tried the new code in a store listing? It should be much more rigid and in quick testing the gold hasn't overlapped the red.
