well im sure this has a really simple answer but i know nothing about these sorts of things

but anyways


i had put some text codes in my about me on myspace
just basic stuff like size/color changes

but i changed the layout and now the codes aren't working
like they still show up when i edit my profile
but something in the layout has them disabled


so i was wondering if someone could tell me what to take out of the layout so that my text will go back to how it was
just what to look for that might be doing this i guess

i really don't know

Can you provide the URL (address) of a document that demonstrates the problem?

there's not a url for the actual layout

there's one for the site i got it from
and there's the layout code


would either of those help?

and there's the url for my profile
i don't see how that would help though


plus it's private so it wouldn't show up

We need the URL of a document that shows your best attempt, so we can try to figure out what the problem is.

i'm not sure what you mean by that

sorry

this is the layout code
idk if it helps or not
but it's all i have

The markup has errors. For one thing, the style element must be in the head element, the head element must come before the body element, and the linked image must be in the body element. There is a link to our online markup validator at the bottom of this page.

The CSS also has errors. For example, colors should be #ffffff rather than just ffffff and you've got mismatched/missing { braces }. The W3C's CSS Validation Service will report these errors.

So which "codes" aren't working for you?

the layout works okay

it's just that there's something in the layout that disables codes that i already had on my profile

if that makes any sense

What kinds of "codes" are being disabled?

they are just basic text codes

<font color=""></font>
<font size=""></font>
<center>

Well, you do have a rule that selects font elements, and that rule has a missing } at the end, so the browser could apply rules that follow the font rule to the font elements.

so if i add the } it should fix it right?

ok
so i put the } in two places that i found it missing

it fixed the color and center but not the size

Your font selector applies the following rules:That's going to override both font size and font family.

Why can't you just copy the same layout using a layout generator or copy the picture url data and everything to a better code?
It'd be faster..well for me it works faster that way lol

But if your just going to change the layout sometimes why is the problem that important?

ok
it's fixed

thank you so much for being patient with me
