Excellent! Thank you! It is sorted now. I did have two "overflow:hidden" statements in the CSS - one applied to images, and the other was to everything contained in the #body container. Neither of them affected presentation though, they were left over from the old design which I am little by little changing and improving. But the real problem was exactly where you said it was - so I set the #news_archive DIV to float left and the DIV with calendar went into place. Then I set the DIV width to 98% to fill in the entire area and everything looks great! Now to the rest of the appearance

Hello, I am not too sure if this is for the HTML or for the CSS section; if Mods think it is for the CSS, please move it. Problem: In this site I am making, I am nesting a table displaying a calendar with a news archive. The table will not show in Firefox (updated to latest version). It shows in Chrome, IE 9, and Opera. It even shows in my phone's browser (Android 4.0)! Both the HTML and the CSS of the site validate, I have examined everything a dozen times, I even inserted <tbody></tbody> tags, which is never do... The table's actual code is there when you look at the page source, it just won't display. I have no idea what is wrong and I hope someone can help me out here. Here's the site: http://amalipe.com

RESOLVED: It appears I had to declare the table I was copying the data from in the UPDATE part:

I also tried this: UPDATE news_text1 SET news_text1.date = news.date WHERE news_text1.parent = news.id I've noticed that whichever column I put after the equal sign is the "unknown column". I guess I'm making some some really stupid mistake or some is broken in my PhpMyAdmin. ... Help please!

I tried this to test how this thing works (first time ever I need to copy data from one table to another). So, now I tried this: INSERT INTO news_text (date) SELECT news.date FROM news This is supposed to copy ONLY the "date" field, isn't it? Now, it copies ALL the fields of that table. Am I writing this correctly? EDIT: Did some more reading and decided to try this: UPDATE news_text1 INNER JOIN news ON news.id = news_text1.parent SET news_text1.date = news.date This gets executed but "0 rows are affected".

It does exist. I wouldn't be asking a question here if I wasn't sure it exists and yet I get this mistake.

Hello, I am trying to copy the data from one of the columns of a table to a column of the same name in another table but can't seem to make it work. The two tables have a different structure. I am trying to copy the "date" field from "news" into the "date" field of "news_text". INSERT INTO news_text (news_text.date) SELECT news.date FROM news WHERE news_text.parent = news.id I get the following error: The "news.id" field corresponds to the "news_text.parent" field. I can't figure out what I am missing :-\
