I have a minor problem and need help as to what I need to edit.

On the What's New and What's Cool pages, the category and link title are on the same line.

Category: Website Title: Description

I've replaced the nph build file, I've looked at various sections and still cannot fix this.

Thanks

Beckie

Not sure, but should be in site_html_templates.pl

Are you sure the nph-build you're using wasn't changed somehow? maybe download a new zip and compare? Look in the nph-build under "sub build_new_page" ( and "cool"). That's where those pages are built, and where you should look for differences. The "\n" you see in the code is important, it means "new line."

An URL to the site would be helpful...

Sorry, I should of included the url

Here is what my nph build shows for that section:

I replaced it with what I thought was the original, but am going to download again just to make sure, if you see the problem....please point it out, this is driving me nuts

I disabled the category listing on mine, but if you want to keep it, and fix your problem, try this in sub build_new_page: (add the red part to your code.)
