In reply to: [AdRotate Banner Manager] ads are rotating around in groupi thought it was the best way to organize the four ads and have one snippet to drop into my template code. So you suggest dropping the code from the individual ads then – correct?

In reply to: z-index troubleshuh – very strange. I am sure it’s there now – just double-checked and it is definitely there.
I have a drop-shadow on the page selector and I want that to overlap the footer – that’s my goal.

In reply to: z-index troublesSorry – I had played with that before and then must have removed it when I couldn’t get it to work.
I have added a z-index to the #page selector now but still am not seeing the correct layering of the page over footer.
This seems so simple but I must have confused things along the way – please let me know if I’ve entered the wrong values or what else I might be doing wrong.
Thanks!

In reply to: [Newsletter Sign-Up] how to get the text in the email field to remainThat is exactly it!
Here is a link to the site http://heattreatforum.flyten.net/.
The search field on the left is how I want the newsletter search field (on the right) to perform. So when someone clicks in it the text stays in the background until they start typing.
thanks!
That worked – thank you!

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] having trouble with footer on child pagesGary – you are a hero! thank you so much! This is what ended up working:
#colophon {
background: #666666;
padding: 3.75ex;
box-shadow: 5px 5px 5px 5px #666;
max-width: 1010px;
padding-top: 30px;
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 1em;
margin: 0 auto;
clear: both;
}Out of curiosity what did the ‘clear: both;’ actually do (what made it work)?
And yes this site is a non-fluid responsive disaster right now, the footer is just one example of it. Much work to do!
But thank you again for your help on this!!

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] having trouble with footer on child pagesThanks again Gary – I regularly employ both Chrome’s development tools and Firebug. I actually placed the footer outside of the page div on purpose as I wanted the footer to stretch the width of the wrapper rather than being buried within the page div.
Is there a better way to go about this? And why would it show up correctly on the front-page.php?
Thanks again for your attention to this problem!

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] having trouble with footer on child pagesThanks for your response Gary!
I am combing through the files (page.php and footer.php) and am not finding the extra </div>
Did you happen to see an indication of where the extra </div> might be?
Sorry for the bother and I appreciate the attention you’ve already given this.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] tangled up with css and media queriesThis has helped – thank you for your advice! I understand that in theory the styles set in the media queries shouldn’t be overriding my styles when displayed on my standard monitor – except that I’ve read that since this theme is “mobile first” that the queries actually effect everything rather than just the respective width’s of mobile devices – and I believe that is where my trouble resides. Of course I could be totally wrong but at least implementing your advice is helping for now!
Thanks again!
