Man ...
That's Important !! Please !! ...

It looks like there needs to be a css clear right or both added to force the second module div down.

But ... I don't really know how to force them ...

First you need to determine what is causing the problem. Have you run the url through the w3c validator?

The cause could be an error in the module that you're using or the content of the module. If there are html tags that haven't been closed for example, strange things happen on the page. The w3c validator will help diagnose the html code.

This is the validation page w3.org validator as your site is on a public server, you can use 'validate by url'. Paste the url of the page throwing the error in to the input field and stand back.

If there are errors on the page, you will need to go through the code and fix the cause and retry the validation.

This is a link to the css validator w3.org CSS validator

You may need to use both services. If you have FF web developer tools installed, there are several validation options under the 'Tools' dropdown menu.

Hi Freshgs !!
Thank Yo much ...
But ... How is possible that I have ... " 59 Errors, 112 warning(s) " !!! ???

Hoh can I fix all this !? !? One By One !! ??

I've update the on-line site, if You wonna have a look ...
Thank You.
Pietro

One thing you can try is using ascii for special characters & = & amp; or & #38; which the browser will convert to the & character when rendered. I have added a space in each code because [strike]if I don't you will see & or & look at the source of this page and you will see this one uses the code & #38; to display & which I typed in directly with the editor in wysiswyg[/strike]. You can see it yourself by typing the code and then previewing the post. You will see it converted to &. You will see it work in the preview output only!

Here is a link to an ascii list htmlcodes.htm it's best to use codes because some characters are used for control, in html and other scripting languages - & may not get parsed correctly when used in content or titles for example.

There is no point trying to fix anything on that page, until you get the first errors out of the way. Because I think many of the other errors will disappear once that one has been resolved.

You will then just have to deal with each error as it comes up, the validator gives you a pretty good idea of the cause in the explanatory text.

Some errors cause a compound effect, like your use of '&' which makes it hard to pin things down, unless you fix things like that first. It could well be that which is causing the second module too push up into the first one.

When you see a big list of errors like that, don't worry about them all, just start at the top of the list! You can't try and fix something in the middle of the list, because it may not be an error, if the preceding code is correct. If you're good with code, then maybe you could identify individual errors and fix them out of order.

Hope that all makes sense.

Good luck

P.S. Go to your menu manager and change the life & love to life & #38; love or remove the & to see if that fixes some errors.

Understand ...
But ... I removed the "&" and nothing change ... I still have 59 errors and 111 warnings ... A lot of FUNC with & are considered as errors, it seems ...

What About this solution:

Find in index.php something like

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="none" />

And replace it with:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="table" />

The problem is that I do NOT find anything like jdoc: etc ...
Do You know where I can look ??

Thank You.
Pietro

Are you sure you escaped the & correctly in the title when I revalidated the page earlier the ; was missing and that's the escape character. If you tried it with out the & and the error count stayed the same that's odd. It should have dropped by at least one!

Your output was Life &#38 Love no ';' was applied when I checked it!

There really is no point trying to fix things without getting that error corrected first IMHO. What are you fixing if that error is effecting the tags which follow it?

Here is info on your jdoc question...

Jdoc_statement wiki

Have fun

Edit:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="left" style="none" />

The none in that Jdoc statement is defining the styling applied to that module position. It could be xhtml, rounded etc. That will effect all modules in that position. There is an article on the Joomla wiki, that gives the predefined options for styling template module positions.

Thank You Freshgs ...
Just, I rewrite again the normal & because change it was no so important ... I mean ... that error disappeared, that's true... but still I hace a lot of them ...
I'll change again the "&" with the "&#38"

About the Jdoc ...
Thank You, but ... what should I do with all that info ??
I just need to know WHERE is that part of code ...
And, if You think it will work ...

Jdoc is a library function! It's not in your template code it's called by the template, to load a module in that position.

Ok ... I understand this but ...
Where should I find that ... ?????

I cannot just add it in the template index.php
Or in the site index.php ...

If I do this, than:

Code: Select all

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in C:xampphtdocstest2index.php on line 21

Can i see your website?

Well that fixed it nice one!

Edit: Oh that was your off line page validating!

No news Paulo ??

Guyssss

Well ...
I've asked a lot of time, finally I found it, I think ...
In /templates/gk_cherrydesign/layouts/blocks/left.php
I changed the line 37 from:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php echo $left1;?>" style="gavickpro" />

To:

Code: Select all

<jdoc:include type="modules" name="<?php echo $left1;?>" style="table" />

...

It's SOLVED, ALMOST ...
I just loose a bit the gavick style, and I don't like it ...
Paulo, Freshgs ...
Has anyone an idea ... ??

Many thanks...
Pietro

????? !!!!!

Hi

This is some validation error comming from the module, but it can be made to look ok with code:

Code: Select all

.moduletable > h3, .moduletable_text > h3, .moduletable_menu > h3 {

}


at the end of template.css file.

Hi

Right now Your site is not working. I can see the backup panel. I'll see it tomorrow.

THANK YOU TEITBITE !!!!!!!!!!

Hi

I'm lost. I need Your help. This looks like a completly diffrent site. I cannot find the left1 position with the images ;/

You've also asked me about the load speed. The site looks fine in this case, You probably see it slow because cache is disabled right now. But of course You can run YSlow on Your site and see what it recommends.

A different site ??
Are You Sure Tetibite ??

About PrettyBox ...
I've notice right now that the JB LibraryPlugin has an error:

Code: Select all

Warning: html_entity_decode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/mhd-01/www.pietrosferrino.net/htdocs/libraries/joomla/html/parameter/element/text.php on line 45

Maybe I should ask the guys wich made that, isn't it Teitbite ??

OHHH DAMMED ...

I've remove the JB library plugin, tried re-install again and:

Code: Select all

Warning: file_put_contents(/home/mhd-01/www.pietrosferrino.net/htdocs/tmp/install_4caa4f591f2d3/jbLibrary/includes/js/jquery-1.3.2.min.js) [function.file-put-contents]: failed to open stream: Disk quota exceeded in /home/mhd-01/www.pietrosferrino.net/htdocs/libraries/joomla/filesystem/file.php on line 298

...
2.05 in the night ...
Maybe I'll go to sleep, just a bit ...

Hi

Och Jes...

I do not know what to do also ;/

Please tell me where to start.

Och Jes

... Yes ... I agree ... But ...
Hi, Teitbite ... Don't worry ... I've fix moste of the problems ...
Now, let start to zero, and make the situation point ...

So ...

0)
a couple of days I have strange messages on my e-mail ...
Even deleting a lot of staf or making new DB on the server etc it persists ...
I wrote another post, about this titled
"MAIL_OBJECT_DEFAULT"

A PART THIS ...

{0.2)
The problem with the JB LIBRARY PLUGIN should be off ...
Galeries are still not working ... but I'll solve with JB, I hope ...
The strange thing is that, in localhost I SEE the images ...
and on the server I don't ...}

SO ...
By the way ...

1)
In "Travle School" ... please ...
The Mod_news_pro_gk4 doesn't work ... I think it will be easy for You ... it seems to me, paramethers are ok ... but don't really know ...

2)
Some problems exist with the AllVideo Plugin of Joomla Works ...
I tried to fix with them, but they answered:

Your issue is related with css. Your template css conflicts with the tables you are trying to create and break them ... Please contact your template provider to help you.

This is about what You can see in PORTFOLIO/FREEDOWNLOAD ...
There are videos in the Right_Top Position and they are OK ... But in the CONTENT ARTICLE, as You should see ... they are one over another ...
I've made a table (2 row, 3 columns) ... But it doesn't help ...
This is what they where talking about ...

Always in the same page, I'll hear a beautiful Kill Bill Sountrack ;o)
The problem with the mp3 reader is that it perfectly works there ...
BUT NOT in the home page ... where I'll go to see the code {mp3}title{/mp3} and not the reader itself, as in that page ...

DON'T HATE ME, PLEASE ...

Not Enough ... Please Teitbit ... I've notice that the Search Module doesn't work anymore ...

IT OK ...
It works now ... I simply forgot to delet some plugin ...

Hi

I have checked the NSP module called "Nikon Master Classes in Italy" and do not know what's going on ;/ It has plenty of articles without a content. I went to the panel and I've found out that You did forgot to select to show content Please play a little more with the module settings.

Where is/should be this AllVideo ???

Slides was not showing because of the "transparent" word instead of color value for background in Photoslide group configuration.

You asked me why it looks diffrently on localhost and live and my answer is that database is completly diffrent (that's what I think).

Hi Teitbite !!
^_^
Thank You for the NSP Module !! It's incredible ... somethimes

By the way ...
I didn't understand when You say

You asked me why it looks diffrently on localhost and live and my answer is that database is completly diffrent (that's what I think).

How can they be different ...
I simply make an Import Database from the PhpMyAdmin ... Now I'll go to do it again ...
But ... Pardon me ... I got lost about the video in the articles ...
Thery Are Not in some folder ... All they are External Links ...
But ... I've delete the test site on line ...
Please ... Don't hate me ...
But now I cannot check the on-line site, so, Ihave to ask You to explain me this:

Slides was not showing because of the "transparent" word instead of color value for background in Photoslide group configuration

Are You talking about the Videos in the content ... ??
Or about the photos in the PrettyBox Gallery ??

Sorry for my stupid questions ...
tonight I'am to tired to understand ...
Sorry again ...
And Thank You By Th Way ...

Pietro
