i dont understand what i did wrong? i thought it would be easier for who ever reads this to tell the difference between the code and what im saying. sorry

Okay i moved the code inbetween the open and close template codes or whatever they are and i can see the LOGIN SCREEN!! but now i need user and password all on one line..should i try to put all the code on one <tr>? this i have a feeling will be more like a blog :'( its all good.. its sunday and this will help others fix there problem im having when i get it right.

OH OK I JUST FIGURED OUT THAT THE AREA I SAID WAS OPEN AND THE AREA I SAID WAS CLOSED FOR THE LOGIN? THAT WASNT ALL THE CODE! I JUST ADDED THIS UNDERNEATH THE CLOSE TEMPLATE CODE <table width="100%" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tr> <td width="5" class="grey_left" align="right"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> <td class="grey_content grey-body">{$language.existing_members_login_here}:</td> <td width="5" class="grey_right" align="left"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" class="grey_right grey_left" background="{$root}/boxes/grey_separator.gif">{html_image file="$root/boxes/grey_separator.gif"}</td> </tr> {$forms.login.start} <tr> <td width="5" class="grey_left" align="right"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> <td class="grey_content"> <table width="100%" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="3" border="0"> {if $settings.username_use < 2} <tr> <td class="grey-body">{$forms.login.labels.0}</td> <td align="right">{$forms.login.elements.0}</td> </tr> {else} <tr> <td class="grey-body">{$forms.login.labels.1}</td> <td align="right">{$forms.login.elements.1}</td> </tr> {/if} <tr> <td class="grey-body">{$forms.login.labels.2}</td> <td align="right">{$forms.login.elements.2}</td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"> <tr> <td class="grey-body">{$forms.login.labels.3}</td> <td align="right">{$forms.login.elements.3}</td> </tr> </table></td></tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" align="right">{$forms.login.buttons.0}</td> </tr> </table> </td> <td width="5" class="grey_right" align="left"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> </tr> {$forms.login.end} <tr> <td colspan="3" class="grey_right grey_left" background="{$root}/boxes/grey_separator.gif">{html_image file="$root/boxes/grey_separator.gif"}</td> </tr> <tr> <td width="5" class="grey_left" align="right"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> <td class="grey_content grey-body" align="center"><a href="index.php?page=forgot">Forgot your password?</a></td> <td width="5" class="grey_right" align="left"><img src="{$root}/spacer_grey.gif" width="4" height="1" border="0"></td> </tr> </table> didnt do anything tho I guess i can keep experimenting since i got some more code to play with.. Still looking for help tho!!

OOOOOK im sure this is very simple..but i have as much knowledge about coding as a myspace user taking copying and pasting codes. Now, my problem. I recently bought Dzoic Handshakes after doing some research on a social networking script. got it on a server at stormondemand.com. I am trying to customize it in a section they have for us called page composer.. It uses smarty templates? which im catching on to seems pretty easy since all i have to do is type in the template and all the code pops up. but when i pull up the header.tpl and try to place the Login section template code in the header it just doesnt pop up right. i have been trying to figure this out but now im just wasting to much time so if anyone could help it would be much appreciated. i will post the code below...maybe a newb mistake.. i guess i will find out in the future.. HEADER.TPL {if $menus.submenu1} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu1} {elseif $menus.submenu2} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu2} {elseif $menus.submenu3} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu3} {elseif $menus.submenu4} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu4} {elseif $menus.submenu5} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu5} {elseif $menus.submenu6} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu6} {elseif $menus.submenu7} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu7} {elseif $menus.submenu8} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu8} {elseif $menus.submenu9} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu9} {elseif $menus.submenu10} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu10} {elseif $menus.submenu11} {assign var="submenu" value=$menus.submenu11} {/if} <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Cache-Control" CONTENT="no-cache"> <META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1"> <META http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset={$encoding}"> <META http-equiv="content-language" content="en"> <META NAME="description" CONTENT="{$meta.description}"> <META name="keywords" content="{$meta.keywords}"> <title>{$meta.title}{$page_title}</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{$root}/style.css"> {$javascript} <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- var MainURL = "{$url}/"; //--> </script> </head> <body bgcolor="#ccccc" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" bottommargin="0" rightmargin="0" onload="{$onload}"> {if $sbmodule == "enabled"} <script type="text/javascript" src="{$url}/jscript/sblib.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="{$url}/jscript/wz_tooltip.js"></script> {/if} {include file="notification.tpl"} <div id="vchat_window"></div> THIS IS WHERE MY HEADER STUFF IS I BELIEVE <table height="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="3" id="body" align="center" width="1059"> <tr><td width="9" background="{$root}/page_shadow_left.gif">{html_image file="$root/spacer.gif"}</td> <td> <table height="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" align="center" width="100%"> <tr><td valign="top" height="150"> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="5"> <tr><td width="139">{html_image file="$root/logo.gif" link="index.php"}</td> </td> <td width="100%"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" height="44"> <tr><td background="{$root}/header_bcg.gif" colspan="2">{html_image file="$root/header_bcg.gif"}</td></tr> <tr><td background="{$root}/header_line.gif" height="9" width="430">{html_image file="$root/spacer.gif" height="9"}</td> <td background="{$root}/header_line_fixed.gif" height="9">{html_image file="$root/spacer.gif" height="9"}</td> </tr> </table></td> <td width="227" background="{$root}/header_bcg_icons.gif" align="right"> {if $info.im_access && $info.mem_id} <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="227"> <tr><td align="right"> <script type="text/javascript"> AC_FL_RunContent( "codebase","http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0", "width","75", "height","44", "src","{$url}/swf/hsim_corner", "quality","high", "allowScriptAccess","always", "bgcolor","#ffffff", "wmode","transparent", "FlashVars","mem_id={$info.mem_id}&password={$info.password}&member_status={$info.im_status}", "pluginspage","http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer", "movie","{$url}/swf/hsim_corner" ); </script> </td></tr> </table> {else} {html_image file="$root/spacer.gif" width="227"} {/if} </td> </tr> </tr> THIS IS THE LOGIN FORM CODE THAT WAS IN THE BODY WHEN YOUR FIRST SIGN INTO RESPECTTHEREAL.COM BUT I TOOK IT AND TRIED TO PLACE IT HERE IN THE HEADER BUT ITS JUST NOT COMING OUT HOW I EXPECTED.
