Need a bit of help w/ band MySpace!

Hey guys, first post here, hope someone can help me.

Basically, I'm an amatuer HMTL and CSS editor. I am in a band and rather than pay someone through the teeth to make us a decent MySpace, I decided to learn how to do it myself.

My problem is of course related to Internet Explorer vs every other browser. The issue doesn't lie in fixing position etc (I understand the use of the _ hack, finally!). IE chooses not to pick up on my editing of values. If someone could have a look over the code and tell me where I'm going wrong, I would appreciate it. I should warn you though, it's not pretty and a little bit all over the place, but it's the only way I know how to do it!

Basically, I have several hyperlink image components that need to be positioned. The positioning of the top hyperlink (the image of the album cover) is perfect, as is the position of the band pic that links to more pictures. The problem is that whenever I try to add another element, it positions it directly underneath the image above it in IE. This doesn't happen in FF etc, only in IE.

Can someone help me?

After recording our EP "The Destruction Process" at Chime Studios in 2007, Grant Me Revenge released the six-song debut to listen on MySpace and for free download on Last.FM. After being contacted by UK Metal Underground Online, "The Destruction Process" has been given a strong review:<p>

"Grant Me Revenge stay well away from the stagnation of the metal/deathcore genre, instead choosing to pave a path in 21st century, forward thinking hardcore.<p>

Instead of blatant, faux-aggressive breakdowns you can predict 30 seconds before they turn up to annoy you, Grant Me Revenge manage to incorporate them intelligently into their songs without sending you to sleep."<p>

The problem is that whenever I try to add another element, it positions it directly underneath the image above it in IE.

Sorry, lost me there. it positions what directly underneath what? And what specifically do you want it to do?

Sorry dude, brain was completely fried when posted!

Thanks for taking the time to reply. What I mean is that when I place another div element which corresponds to a hyperlinked image in the HTML and CSS editing area of MySpace, Internet Explorer chooses not to follow what I am tell it to. It just renders the page with the div element directly underneath the previous one, as if it does not see that there is coding there.

what are you trying to get it to do, if you don't want it below? beside it? inside it? Just trying to feel it out before I suggest.

I just want to say i hate MySpace for this reason alone. I have nothing to contribute but this...

screw myspace

AND

I can't wait til you post some music! i hope you guys are good!
:)

Well I want to be able to put it wherever I see fit really. Yes, the next images are going below the current ones, but I have about 10 elements that need placed after the ones already in place.

And you can check the stuff out at http://www.myspace.com/grantmerevenge - we've been about for ages, just need a nice new page to direct people to! And I ****ing loathe MySpace too, but it's the best platform for music profiles.

Sorry to Double Post, but I think I got it resolved, there was a big load of coding in the middle that should have been at the end and it was putting a blocker between the two div's.

Cheers for replying guys!
