I love it when a plan comes together
(Category: Weblog Stuff )

Strange stuff, me blogging on a Sunday. Lovely Wife is still abed, children #1 and #2 are quietly watching Rugrats and child #3 is still quiet upstairs in his crib. The planets have aligned to give me the very rarest of opportunities - weekend blog time.

So what have I done with this most precious of commodities? I've frittered it away on template work. I'm about 50% of the way towards what I can live with. Links have been brought over and a good portion of the formatting/color is fixed. 2 problems I could use some help with:

1) What code do I use to put in a sidebar item for archive post categories?

2) See that rude little teal section above the sidebar where the body color shows thru? I can't figure out where the heck that is coming from. As far as I can determine, my elements should be covering up all of the real estate there. Anybody care to take a peek and see where I screwed up? As a special incentive, I'll let you disparage my sitebuilding skills if you can identify the problem. How can you pass up that offer?

The DNS hasn't propogated yet but it should happen soon. When it does I'll be closing down the old place and officially start advertising this one. Probably will be tomorrow morning as I hear #3 bumping around upstairs now so I expect my blogging window is about to slam shut on my quickly retracting fingers.

I'm tackling the category thing today, too - I'll send you the code when I've figured it out.

Also, I'll send you how to show categories with individual posts.

Thanks, Heather!

And now I see that my comments template will need some work, too.

Anybody have ideas on that background color showing through?

You can show the archive categories with this:

<div class="sidetitle">
Category Archives
</div>
<div class="side">
<MTCategories>
<a href="<$MTCategoryArchiveLink$>"><$MTCategoryLabel$></a><br>
</MTCategories>
</div>

Not sure about the teal blurpage.

The gray text is a little light on the white background.

Got the teal leakage fixed. The sidebar was set with a top margin.

Also took care of that light grey text in the sidebar. Is the regular grey text in the body okay? Looks fine to me but I'd like another opinion.
