You can find the corresponding part in the style sheet for the div id of the larger container or the button's class and add the code to it. That will tell the browser that the containing div or the button, whichever you choose, needs to be 20px away from the bottom. I'm not familiar wih Wordpress, so I can't be any more specific.

    okay thanks. I have to quit for a while so I don't get locked out by the firewall. When I edit certain files some many times within an hour, it thinks I'm hacking and locks me out. So I have to wait till later.

    I expect that will solve the problem, 20px is probably too much, but you can adjust it. But I don't know how Wordpress does the code layout for the pages, so if the code doesn't solve the problem, I have another line of code that should allow you control over the positioning of the button.

    I noticed that under IE 9, the button is at the very bottom of the post, leaving no space, but it is within it. But in Firefox 5 it is not contained, and is several px outside of the post.

    Remember, that can be turned off while you are working and messing around in there although I still think it's safer to get the software patched first to remove the string that is triggering mod security.

    It's finding the time and money. Living on a fixed income because of disability does not always warrant me to do what needs to be done when I want it.

    I found where the code should go, except when entered it does nothing. But when I increase the px number in that same section, it makes the bottom part of the white text area separate from the rest. Like a very thin strip just separates itself from the rest and sits in the middle of the grey area. I have decided to just leave it alone for now. It's not causing any problems technically, just cosmetically. It's not interfering with any other part of the site so I'll just leave it for now. May cause me more trouble than it's worth if I keep messing with it.

    Whoever designed the template made a few mistakes in how they coded it. Because in IE, the button is actually within the white space, although it is at the very bottom; but when I viewed it in Firefox it was partially outside of it.

    You gotta just love the compatibility of browsers.

    Yup, I've moved to CSS3 for most things, but IE 6-8 doesn't support it, so I'm having to do a little work around. And nothing is standardized yet, so I need a slightly modified piece of code so each browser recognizes it.

    The normal code for rounding corners would be: border-radius: 30px;
    But I have to add -moz for mozilla, -web for webkit browsers. For the most part its not too bad, just add a few more words and its all fine

    You will laugh but we still host many customers who use windows 98 and ME! I'm not kidding. The folk are using stuff out of the stone age (in computer terms). The don't support AJAX, most JavaScript may as well be Ancient Hebrew to them and the SSL is simply impossible because they don't support the newer algorithms.

    I know XP still has a fairly large following, but I would never have expected you had that many people with ancient systems. Although, I do still have a few older OSs around, but I upgraded long ago. It might the old "if it ain't broke don't fix it" theory.
