Hey all,

I'm using a page from within wordpress to manage contact/subscription requests. See http://blog.maltese.net/?page_id=259 Is there a way that I can clean up the alignment of the subscription part and place a rule above it for some demarcation? I'm stumped. :(

TIA,
Chris

For the rule, try the hr tag, hr = horizontal rule :)

As for alignment, how do you want to clean it up? You could put tables to use here for organizing them, and then align the table as you'd like. I'll need you to be more specific before I can help you with stuff.

Thanks, Ronin...

If you look at the comment page, I'd like to have the subscribe section to be inline with the white boxes of the section above it. As for the HR tag, it didn't work for some reason.

TIA,
Chris

The css for this is interesting but let's see if this works:
<div style="margin: 10px auto auto 25%; padding: 5px 0 0 0; border-top: 2px solid black;"><p>Additionally, you may subscribe to this blog. By entering your<br />

<p><input type="radio" name="action" value="add" checked="checked" />subscribe <input type="radio" name="action" value="delete" />unsubscribe <input type="submit" value="Send!" /></form>

Hey Ronin,

Thanks for the help... Looks like I'm getting there with the code that you have kindly provided. I'm trying to put a few breaks before the line to drop the new section so that it looks a little cleaner. When I enter them and update the page, they seem to get stripped out. I'm adding paragraphs after "added", and "size=20" to better format, as well, and they too are being stripped. Any ideas?

TIA,
Chris
