Just a simple Affiliate link Module, I have some code, but not working right

[GamingVidz.com]

I just want to be able to simply have a standard module, same background color border etc. All I want to be able to do is put mini side banner image wiht a url to a site that opens in a new window.

Here is the code I have so far, the border doesn't work, thats the main problem it just won't show up.

<table align="center" class="page" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"width="100%">
<table bgcolor="#f7f7f7" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<td width="110" height="39" align="left" valign="top"><a href="http://www.vgleague.com"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/vglbanner.jpg" alt="" width="110" height="39" border="0" /></a></td>

Any help? The only problem I'm having is the border around the module not showing up, and also, I can't get the image to open in a new url lol (but I'm sure I can figure that out, just forgot how to, so used to the stuff working without even having to code) lol

No need for all worry. It should be a transparent BG. Giver a shot and let me know

If you're still on check out what it did, It put the name affiliates at the bottom and then put several vgl banners ( I know thats because you had it several times -thats not the issue) And there still was no border...

hmmmm

hold on. Give me a sec

Then edit your module.

Use Module Shell Template No

It worked but I don't want it to be collapseable, also the little collapse image is stretched. (thanks for the help thus far though) It would seem really easy huh?

Here you go:

<table align="center" border="0" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" class="tborder" width="100%">
<thead>
<tr>
<td class="tcat smallfont" style="font-weight: bold;"><a style="float: $stylevar[right]" href="#" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_$mods[filename]')"></a>$vba_options[portal_blockbullet] $mods[title]</td>
</tr>
</thead>
<tfoot style="display: none;"><tr><td></td></tr></tfoot>
<td class="$getbgrow">
<a href="http://www.vgleague.com"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/vglbanner.jpg" alt="" width="100" height="39" border="0" />
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

Do you accept Visa?

Heh anyway thanks a lot, I just had one other question, is it possible to make it be flush with the border? that way I can fit the image in there better. And also, the image doesn't link to a new window, I think its called a parent or something. Anyway I'd also like it to launch in a new window.

Thanks a lot though, I think you logged off I'm going to sleep now as well, hopefully i'll owe you another $5 tomorrow.


Yes, I accept visa through Paypal. ;) As for making the image flush, try making it larger. I would make the image background transparent and it will look better IMO

I tried making it bigger it just expaned the affiliate module

I guess you answered your own question then. Try making the Image background transparent. See if that makes it look better..

Also, on your top center adsense module, consider placing an <br /> at the very bottom of the template. It will give you a little space between that and the next module. It will make your portal more uniform.

That doesn't work

Hi, I hope you don't mind me breaking into this thread but it is on a similar theme to what I want to do. I am not a coder. I would like to place my Amazon affiliate banner at the top of each page (a bit like the ones here). I have taken a look at adding rotational banners and must admit I am just confused. Is there an easy step by step guide to adding that code to the top of each page? I.E the portal,forum and gallery.
