PLEASE do NOT strip my credits out of your code. They are harmless. Unlike most sites, My credits do NOT show up on your visible page, there is no reason to remove them. If you make a derivative of my work, you may add your own credits, but leave mine in tact.

I apologize for being less attentive to people's questions than in the past. I hope to return to doing this at some time. But for now I need to think about what I want to do. This doesn't mean I am completely ignoring all questions, if I suspect there might be a bug in my code, or myspace has made some change effecting it, I will still dig in and research.

My Space Left Side, Structure, Hiding, Styling, and More

The following page has a diagram, which shows the layout of the myspace page.
Click Here: MySpace Page Layout
It shows the depth of each page elements.
By depth I mean the number of layers, of div, table, and cells. (I do not show rows).

Notice the left column, it has a black dashed border. It has no class assigned (the right column has class text assigned, it is shown in red dashed).

EVERTHING in this column has a class assigned.

It has the following classes:
profileInfo
contactTable
userProfileURL
interestsAndDetails
userProfileDetail
userProfileSchool
userProfileCompany
userProfileNetworking

There is also an object (addressed as an embed in FF).
This is addressed as follows:
table table div object,
table table div embed

If I want to hide everything on the left side I do this:
<style>
table.profileInfo,
table.contactTable,
table.userProfileURL,
table.interestsAndDetails,
table.userProfileDetail,
table.userProfileSchool,
table.userProfileCompany,
table.userProfileNetworking,
table table td div object, table table td div embed
{display:none;}
{! additional code if you want to center what is left !}
table img {display:none;}
div table img, table table td.text img {display:block;}
td {width:auto !important;}
</style>

The only command, above, which has the potential of effecting another page element, is the line to hide the music player. Because it has no class, we had to address it by depth. This is why I was more explicit with its depth, than I was with the other elements.
To restore the myspace video player, and any videos you may have in your blurbs, use this:
<style>
table table td.text object,
table table td.text embed {display:block;}
</style>


For more code which can be used to manipulate the left side of the profile, Click on the Subject in the below table:
Styling the Profile Info,Name (class nameText), Picture,Headline, Sex, Age, Location
Text Next To Profile Image,age, sex, location,Hiding, Changing, Styling
Importing Mood Thing into a Div Overlay
userProfileURL URL Box,hiding, styling the URL space
Picture in place of URL box
Custom Content in URL space
Interests Table, Styling, Hiding, Changing headers
Custom table Above Interests Table
Custom Interests Table or Custom Table BELOW interests Table
Details Table,Styling, Creating Custom Detail Table


Have a Nice Day; Thank you for Visiting :-)

I don't know what to do if the myspace functionality, which is supposed to work, does not work.

Is it auto play which doesn't work, or when you push the play button?

I know they have been having trouble with the auto-play setting you set for you profile. All mine were set to auto-play off, and I had to recently re-set them all, for them to not start automatically.
Why don't you try re-setting that.
If it look right, re-save it anyway.
See if that works.

Hi =)

Is there a way to change the interests/details default colors (shades of blue) to other colors such as shades of pink or purple or something?

For tasks such as changing colors and fonts of a specific myspace section, I think that this resource may be easier to use than my instructions:

interactive profile customizing tool

If that doesn't work for you, I will give you further help.
