<table border="5" width="870" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<a onclick="pageTracker._trackPageview ('/outgoing/_URL_http_www_tunemytoyota_com_');" href="[URL]http://www.tunemytoyota.com/"><img[/URL] src="[URL]http://www.tunemytoyota.com/forum/images/banners/bannera.jpg[/URL]" alt="" border="0" /></a>

</table>
<!-- /logo -->
[I][COLOR=red]</br>[/COLOR][/I]
[I][COLOR=red]<div align="center">[/COLOR][/I]
[I][COLOR=red]<table width="988" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="border">[/COLOR][/I]
[I][COLOR=red]<tr>[/COLOR][/I]
[I][COLOR=red]<td align="left" valign="below">[/COLOR][/I]

[I][COLOR=red]<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">[/COLOR][/I]
[I][COLOR=red]<tr>[/COLOR][/I]

i've tried a few diff things and i cant get it right, so im askin is sumone can take a peek for me

thanks guys!

 

Why are you trying to remove that code? The reason it's stretching is because your removing the table that is formatting the site.

 

when that code is there it removes my profile tabs...

 

Your header usually defines the layout for your sight about your navigation. By default. You code shows your cutting off a table partway there. IE.. you started a row. The next template called should define that row and start with<td> for ALMOST EVERY script vb has. As the header is used in most of the calls.

Without seeing all the templates your calling and your header template not closing a table it's kinda hard to tell you.

 

so, i played with the code alittle bit and fixed it sumhow...but is there an open table or sumthing that im missing? I dont understand...

 

Pulling the page source code will tell you. Make sure all the tables rows and columns open and close where they are suppose too.

Because vb3 is nothing but nested tables sometimes it's confusing where they are nested and if not closed properly it breaks only on certain pages. If you look at the original header you'll see if closes a table whereas your's cuts off in the middle. So the templates that follow continue that table that's in your header.
