MySpace Layouts Updates
Remaining ever vigilant on how my MySpace layouts display on MySpace profiles, I recently discovered that some of my layouts that employ the tweak to hide the MySpace header and footer links (Home, Browse, Search, etc.) will sometimes suppress the display of the banner ad appearing across the top (and to those who may be thinking, 'Yeah? So what? Cool!...' — NO WE DO NOT WANT THIS).
After considerable investigation, I discovered that the MySpace template will now sometimes wrap the banner ad —most particularly when image ads are being displayed— in an extra DIV element which then tests true for this line of code:
table tbody tr td div div {visibility: hidden;}
This line of code is used in my tweak to hide the footer links.
This issue has been corrected and all of the following layouts have been updated.
On the Free MySpace Layouts home page: Webmaster's Choice #1 - #5
In the Original MySpace Layouts series: All 5 layouts on this page

And finally, the code generated by the Hide Header/Footer links tweak in my Advanced MySpace Editor was updated as well.
If you were using one of these layouts, you can correct this issue by either reinstalling the layout code or by copy-and-pasting this quick fix code into the bottom of your 'About Me' box on your 'Edit Profile' screen:
That's it..
Have a good one!

I recently purchased one of your professional layouts, which has been working great for me--that is until Myspace changed their code around. Now my custom banner has moved down and covers up my name, part of my photo, and the controls to the music player. I sure don't know how to fix this, and I am hoping you can help. My name on Myspace is jimcarrcountry.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
Jim,
All my layouts and the Super EZ Profile Tweaker have been updated to be compatible with the changes MySpace recently made to all profiles.
Go to this page:
http://www.ironspider.ca/adv/myspace/04.htm
...and get the updated layout code and then replace your currently installed layout code with that.
Then return to the Super EZ Profile Tweaker download page and download the latest version (0.8) of the Super EZ Profile Tweaker and use that to generate a new header banner code. Then replace your currently installed header banner code with that and everything will return back to normal with your MySpace page. Let me know if you have any further problems.
