 * Hi,
    I have everything working great on my new wordpress, but I can’t seem to
   find the right file to edit that will keep my comments where I want them. My 
   blog kept within a table on my index.php, but when I click the title to view 
   the comments, all the colors and font sizes are correct, but the table width 
   is disreguarded. Also, my comments pop up in windows, but so does my main graphic
   and everything else from my index.php page. I want to know how to only have the
   comments there without anything else. Thanks so much!

 * Comments are handled by `/wp-content/themes/your_theme/comments.php`.

 * I tried adding a table, but it still didn’t work, thanks anyways though. Anyone
   else have any suggestions? Also, for the second part of my question, anything?
   Thanks!

 * Maybe it would help if you put a link to your page, so one could actually see
   what’s happening.

 * Ok, thanks! My Url is [http://www.xokevin.net](http://www.xokevin.net) — Now 
   you will be able to see that if you click a title, the comments do not stay within
   the tables, and also when the comment link is clicked, everything including my
   sidebar and main graphic from the index page are displayed as well, which I’d
   like to change. I hope this helps, thanks!

 * k3vin54, looks like there are some problems with your code. For instance, w3.
   org says you can’t put a table in a span. I personally don’t see why you would
   use spans and tables with wordpress in the first place, but hey â€¦ 😉
 * Check [w3.orgs validation results](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fxokevin.net%2F%3Fp%3D5)
   for a more exhaustive list of errors.
 * Apart from that I hardly recognise anything in your code. Are you using a theme
   or did you code that up yourself? Makes it hard to just say: oh, sure, just delete
   this or that and you’ll be set. I’m sorry this isn’t very helpful. Good luck!
