After implementing two MODS (Events Calendar and Poll)...

The message field (the one where you write a message you might intend to post) in the table associated with the post.asp page is not positioned correctly; i.e., it is located to the right of all the other table's fields and is sandwiched between two apparantly empty (or black) fields.

Similarly, after a message is posted, the related text is located in an empty (or black) field, to the right of where it should be. This happens in regular and poll topics.

The problems seem related. Would someone please point me in the right direction on how to correct this? As always, your guidance is appreciated.

Environment: 3.4.04, MS Acess 2000 --> intend to eventually switch to MySQL.

Have you checked you've done the modifications correctly as stated in the readme files of the MODs?
The files you should check are topic.asp and post.asp

Maybe if you post a link to your forum or a screenshot someone here could help.

My MODs:
Birthdays - Custom Policy - F.A.Q. Administration - Forum Rules - Guestbook
Links Manager - MyOwnGoogle - Profile Views - Search Log - WebSearch

Useful stuff:
Forum and MOD Installation - MOD Installation Guide - Snitz v3.4.05 Readme - Free ASP Hosts - Support Snitz

Thanks OneWay. I've successfully implemented each of the mods separately, but have struggled somewhat to integrate them. I think I'm getting closer to where I'd like to be now. I'll check out where I changed the above files and will re-attempt to catch the error I must have made. If not, I'll post a link or screenshot as you suggested. Thanks again.

So far...so good. First problem in post.asp seems fixed. Relative to the mod code, my forum's post.asp file had what looked like an extra link reference under the 12th mod incidence.

'################################## Poll Mod ###################################
'Remember to remove the &_ code from the end of the line above.
Response.Write " <td bgColor=""" & strPopUpTableColor & """ noWrap vAlign=""top"" align=""right""><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """><b></b><br />" & vbNewLine
if strRqMethod = "Topic" or strRqMethod = "EditTopic" then
if Request.QueryString("poll") = "1" then
Response.Write "Poll Question:"
else
Response.Write "Message:"
end if
else
Response.Write "Message:"
end if
Response.Write "</b><br />" & vbNewLine
' Remember to start the 2nd line below with Response.Write.
'###############################################################################
(extra link ref was here)

I worked on this over the weekend, but haven't been able to figure it out...Thanks in advance for any help.

So far, it seems that the first issue I mentioned regarding the post.asp page seems to be holding resolved.

Well, after all that copy and pasting, it looks like I chopped off some of the topic.asp file. Will redo it. I'll post when I've reassembled it. Thanks again.

Your topic.txt file is missing half of the code. Piece of the file is missing.

Just open your topic.asp file in notepad, click File "Save As" and save it as topic.txt. Then upload it to your site.
