horizontal rule at bottom ?

[Sx]

Hi all,

A.M.A. has helped me great with integrating my forum into my existing layout.  It works like charm.
But there's a strange problem : I've got an horizontal ruler at the bottom of the page.  I don't really mind the ruler, except for the fact that is seems to narrow my site-table-construction.

If you look at the forum, and click on a link in the menu, you can see the pages should be a bit more wide, and I really can't see where the ruler is coming from Maybe I'm overlooking it, even though I'm looking at the code for about 15 minutes now.

All help appreciated

the one at the very bottom? I think that would be in the mambo template wouldn't it?

I don't use mambo.  I just used the looks of it

in your style.css find and remove:

Koodi [Valitse] Laajenna

border-bottom: 1px solid gray;

[Unknown] : I'm sorry to tell, but I checked all the errors the validator tells me, and NONE of them exist.
All tags look fine to me, I really can't find any fault in the html source.

A.M.A. : Thanks, it seems it was the hr, .hrcolor css-tag that had to be removed.  Never would have thought that should have caused the problem.

Can anyone explain why the validator is giving these errors ? all code seems ok to me when I check it out.

well...   first of all, if you have nested tages, you have to close them in the order they were opened.
In other words, a <td> requires a </td>
<div> <table> <tr> <td> requires (in this order) </td></tr></table></div>

that seems to be your main problem...

<edit> hmmm... mixng div and tables is wierd...


bordercolor, bordercolorlight, bordercolordark are not valid attributes...
that seems fairly straighforward...
and add an alt="" to the image tag
