Problems with neopets new HTML limits

[secret :)]

Alright, I have no where else to turn! I really hope someone can help me!

 

Alright so, I made the guild layout using a really good tutorial. However, I went to save my layout and it wont work one part of the CSS.

 

This part to be exact

 

#textbox{
position:absolute;
top: 634px;
left: 258px;
height: 174px;
width: 557px;
overflow:auto;
}

 

Neopets is saying that the "position:absolute;" or well just the word "position" is a invalid word and a disallowed property tag.

 

This makes it where I can't use the text for my blog box, and its frustrating me to no end! Can any of you help me?

My best guess would be perhaps to get rid of the position part entirely and see how it looks. The top part should be the top line, the left part should be the left margin, and then the height should be how tall it is and the width should be the right margin. You'll have to play around with the pixels a bit, but I think that it doesn't matter. The position:absolute seems to just make it easier to position the text-box -- it might take a little trial-and-error, but if you get rid of it and play with the top, left, height and width values, I think you can make it work. =|

 

Or at the very least, I hope so. I'm a novice when it comes to coding as well; I've been playing around with layout coding and such to try and learn so I can start making premades. I had the same problem and I'm still trying to fudge it to make it work. =\ I'm not even sure why TNT made that CSS property 'illegal' or whatever, it makes no sense.

If I still feel like doing it in a week or so, anyways. XD My weird goals like that change from week to week.

Thanks, I'll definitely give it a try. Because it works fine when I take the position out part, but the text wont show up in the box =/ but yeah, I'll definitely try.

 

I hope so too, this is my first time making a layout and I'm like o_O -eyetwitch- lol. But I think it's just crazy that they'd change that. But whatever, I guess that's why HTML and CSS evolve. lol, well, if you do end up making them. GOOD LUCK! lol Oh, thanks AGAIN!

Is the text like. Showing up at all? On top of the image? Because if it isn't, making it:

#textbox{
z-index: 4;
top: 634px;
left: 258px;
height: 174px;
width: 557px;
overflow:auto;
}

might help. :3 The z-index bit that I just put in instead of the absolute means that the text lays on top of the image, instead of below it, which happens sometimes. D: D:

If just taking out the position:absolute bit didn't work, try adding in the z-index bit.

 

And ugh, I don't even know in regards to the CSS stuff. It's like, a whole lot of people abuse it or manage to get around certain filters using them or some nonsense, so TNT makes it to where no one can use them. D:

Or base Neopets coding messes up if certain elements are added.

It makes no sense to me at all. xD TNT doesn't exactly offer an explanation when they change around the CSS/HTML rules, anyways. Aside from the error messages about filters and all.

And you're welcome. ;D

Actually YES, I need help with that. I can see part of the text. It IS behind the picture! And I added the z-index: 4; but it didn't do anything.

 

YES. They dont offer any explaination at all, everything they have like disallowed they should have something to ay how to fix it!

Keep upping the value on the z-index is all I can say. D: If there is a z-index that's higher anywhere else in your coding, your text is going to fall behind it.

OR go onto the img part (whatever part has the background image stuff) and add in z-index: -1 which might also help.

 

Ugh or at least some sort of alternate coding. It's just something they spring on you from the shadows of the coding -- they don't forewarn people that they're making changes, they just throw everyone's stuff off and mess things up. xD

Okay I'll try that. Thanks,

 

But yeah I think that's ridiculious! -_- They need to stop with all that business lol. Its so frustrating!
