Hi!

HTML sidebar nuggets can be installed using the serendipity plugin manager. Click on "Plugin Configuration", then click on "Click here to install a new sidebar plugin". Then search for "HTML nugget" and click on the install link. There you can paste your HTML paypal code into.

I think this is your problem:

Code: Select all

/* *****************************
   SIDEBARS
 * *****************************/

.serendipitySideBarContent input {
    width: 150px;
}

Radio buttons are also "inputs", so this CSS style causes each button to be 150px wide.

This bit of HTML has each button in a single row:

Code: Select all

<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
<label for="ss0" title="Search the Web"><font size="-1" color="#000000">Web</font></label></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.test.net" id="ss1"></input>
<label for="ss1" title="Search www.test.net"><font size="-1" color="#000000">test.net</font></label></td>
</tr> 

If you want to keep all input widths at 150px, perhaps you could stack the radio buttons into separate rows??

Code: Select all

<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
<label for="ss0" title="Search the Web"><font size="-1" color="#000000">Web</font></label></td>
</tr> <!-- END THIS ROW -->
<tr>  <!-- START NEW ROW -->
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.test.net" id="ss1"></input>
<label for="ss1" title="Search www.test.net"><font size="-1" color="#000000">test.net</font></label></td>
</tr> <!-- END SECOND ROW -->

Hi!

In your CSS file (style.css) you might want to remove the "width: 150px" stuff.

Or you will need to change all your input fields of the paypal or google button with this:

Code: Select all

<input style="width: auto" ... />

So, you need to add "width:auto" to a style attribute.

HTH,
Garvin
