I've searched the forums but I can't find a similar issue. My apologies if I've missed a thread.

One of my pages has a heap of words/links from the 'header' of the page misplaced vertically on the page. The thing is, it looks fine in VSD, but not in preview or the uploaded site. As the misaligned portion is just copied from the same page as all my other headers, I don't know what can be happening.

I've checked on a couple of different computers and 2 different versions of IE so I'm guessing it's not a browser issue. I've also uploaded quite a few times but it's not resolving.

The page I am having issue with is http://www.dirtriders.info/motostuntgame.html . Any of my other pages have the same header for comparison, but it was copied directly from the hidden page http://www.dirtriders.info/forums.html (don't use the forums link from my pages, it's not the same destination).

Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm not sure if I understand what is wrong with the page, or what it's supposed to be looking like. The attached pic is what I see.

yep that's what I see too Coqsy when in Firefox most recent version. Both pages headers and menus look identical to me on Firefox but...

On IE8 it's a whole different story as I think I see what you're seeing. This is a VSD site so hopefully someone else can help you as I don't use the program, but figured I'd post to let you know I'm seeing it messed up in IE8 also.

I don't have firefox so I haven't tested it on there, but IE7 and IE8 show it messed up. Why it's only this one page I don't know.

I've now re-done the page, mainly just copy and paste but a fresh copy of the header, and it's still just as bad as it was.

I've added new pages using the same page template since, and had no problems, but this page is just messed up. The actual text is also badly misplaced from where it should be.

I'm getting desperate to sort this out. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.

It's also messed up in Chrome.
It seems the main difference between this page and the others that look alright is that this one has an iframe with the flash game in it. Have you tried creating the page without that to see if it could be the troublemaker?

One other thing I would do - group each star with it's link. Sometimes when there's a lot of objects/text overlapping (the bounding boxes and text boxes), you can get some weird results. In Chrome as the page loads, I see the menu "jump down" to the center of the page while the stars remain in place just before the game comes in on top of the menu.

Maybe somebody with some flash know-how can figure out what's going on here

Paintbrush is correct! I removed the iframe and that brought everything into perspective in IE7...
as to why I'm not sure but at least that's one problem to look at..
good job!

Lurk around the forums long enough, and stuff starts to sink in!
It's been awhile since I put an iframe on a VSD site, but if I remember... it seems it took a lot of back and forth between VSD and preview to get it in the right position. For example; position the html box for the iframe in the center of the page then preview in browser - now it's off to one side and a bit higher, so it might be overlapping a text box or other items. This seems to happen more when adding non-Coffee Cup items.
Maybe there's a better way than an iframe to add the flash game to the page?

Thanks for the input so far.

I currently don't know of any other way to embed the games without an iframe, and I've used it many times on this website for videos and games, with no issues apart from this one.

As for the overlap, the header section is a duplicate from one page on every page on the site and doesn't have problems anywhere else (I made sure there were no overlaps). I've also tried massive spacing on this problem page but it won't resolve itself.

Looks like you got it figured out! What did you do?
