MySpace Bottom Menu Links Copyright Hide or Style

Bottom Menu and copyright

WARNING, do NOT remove the bottom links. There have been reliable reports of myspace deleting profiles for having the bottom links/copyright hidden.

To get an idea of how the bottom area is set up, please see the following diagram:
(If you open this in another window, you will be able to read this article while viewing the diagram).
myspace.com/drhoovey" target="_blank"
The area you want to look at is at the very bottom of the page.
The key is to the left (starting top left).

Looking at this space one can see that it can be addressed like this:
table div

To get just the menu and not the copyright thing, like this:
table div div

I left the td out of the above addressing method. It is not necessary here, and really adds no value at all.
(If it were in a class it would possibly make the address more explicit. If I were working with code from multiple sources I might want to use it to enhance compatibility with multiple addressing methods.)

Now look up at the top of the page
Either of the two above address methods also effect the ad banner.
The ad banner is generated on multiple code paths one at level
div table div div
the other
div table div
I am not sure which one you are seeing. The myspace page is updated real-time. Refresh a few times, and see if the ad banner depth changes.

A LOT of code being given out to hide the bottom link/copyright space hides the ad banner.
Most that hides 100% of the ad banners has been fixed. Much that hides 50% of the ad banners is still being given out.

I removed the code to hide the bottom links. MySpace has indicated that they do not want these removed. If you have hidden them, and can not figure out how to recover them, you can post a question to the following forum, and someone there will help you:

Or you can post here, but I have not had the time I used to have to monitor and answer questions on this blog.

Style the Bottom Links, Color, Font, Background color

<i class=i>
<a href="http://xiii.us/ms/bottom">set color font style bottom links copyright</a>
</i>
<style>
i.i {display:none;}
{!-Style the link area and the pipes between the links-!}
table div div {color:hotpink; font-face:impact; font-size:9px; background-color:FCEAF8; width:800px !important; padding-bottom:2px}
{!-The actual links-!}
table div div a {color:hotpink !important; font-face:impact !important; font-size:11px !important;}
{!-copyright-!}
table div font {color:hotpink; font-face:impact; font-size:13px; background-color:lightgrey}
</style>

Prevent Bottom Link table From stretching the full width of browser Window and Center
Due to the way they defined the width of the table, which holds the bottom links, combined with their centering method, this table will stretch the entire length of the browser window.
This often leaves a quirky looking stripe at the bottom.
You can gain control of this. However, once you do, getting the size exactly correct is a chore.

The following code will change the width, from 100% to auto (as much space as it needs) and then center the block.
If you then want to control the width, it is best done by altering the width of the div inside this table.

<style>
table {width:auto !important; height:auto !important;}
body {text-align:center;}
table {margin-right:auto; margin-left:auto;}
</style>

The above code has potential systemic centering/alignment effects on your profile. I like the effects. Each profile is different.

Below is a more complete solution, for centering and controlling the width of the bottom links. It had code to reverse the side effects on other page elements.
I have commented each line so you can see what is going on, and remove the lines you do not want or need.

{! force size of bottom link table by sizing div !}

div table div div select {position:absolute !important; top:0px; left:3px;}
{! fix effect of fixing select thing on google form !}
div table div form {position:relative; left:60px;}

</style>

Replace Bottom Links and Copyright With Image

<a class=i href="http://xiii.us/ms/bottom">custom image in place of bottom links code by Eileen</a>
<style>
.i {display:none;}
table div {background-image:url('http://i10.tinypic.com/639n3br.jpg');
background-position:center center; background-repeat:no-repeat; height:60px}
table table div, div table div {background-image:none; height:auto}
table div div, table div font {visibility:hidden}
div table div div, table table div div, table table div font {visibility:visible;}
</style>

Replace my image (the .jpg file) with your own.
Change height:60 to the height of your image.
It is best not to mess with width.

Will myspace soon prevent us from removing the bottom links and copyright? One would think that they would want us to keep the copyright, but I didn't see this anywhere in the rules?
They don't state that we have to keep the google search, yet I have seen evidence in their code that they are trying to make it much more difficult to remove this.
