large gap in modules

I have a problem in the Userpage module and with the AMS Article Management System. I enter html that I have put together on dreamweaver and when i submit the page and go to read the page, i get about 4 x A4 blank pages of space and then i get me article at the bottom. I can't imagine what is causing this on 2 different modules. What do I do because other people must be using the modules fine. I am using php5 so could this be the problem as I have heard it causes problems with other modules.

Does anyone know

Can you give us a link to "just the html" your posting in the modules?

if in your html code you have for sample :

<table>
 <tr>
  <td>bla blatd>
.....


You must modify as this :
<table><tr><td>bla blatd>...

I have made a smaller test page because the other was enormous and it would take too much space up with the code. Here is the code that I have used. Hope it works



























test
page for modules


 

This is
a test page blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah


blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah


blah blah
blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah
blah
blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blah blah blah blah

[extend]



I did bunch the tags together as suggested but it didn't work. I am really a novice at coding so please bear with me

Try removing the width="634" in your definition to see if that helps. Some themes don't have 634 pixels in the center section so the contents are displayed "after" the left/right blocks so it will "dump" the contents at the bottom of the page (also may depend on your browser). You might also have to modify
to something smaller. You might consider changing all your width settings to percentage (e.g. instead of width="46" try width="7%")

The other option is to use a variable width theme to see if that helps.

I changed the table to just 400 wide, and it still sits in exactly the same place at the bottom of the page. I am snookered. This happens with AMS, Userpages and MXDirectory so its obviously something i am doing wrong but I haven't a clue

phpkaox, could this be the problem. On my home page my centre block has the exact same html in and shows fine, it just seems to be a problem with the modules

Style source

You know there doesn't seem to be anything unusual about this theme. Unless of course you modified it.

Would it be possible for you to provide a link to the site with the theme?
