 * Having few issues with website:
 * 1) I have had this issue with my other website too.
 * Seems like website has its own mind; I use
    <div style=”display: block; float:
   left; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px;”>
 * to align my ad, but the square would not start adjacent to the first line.
 * As you can see, It would drop down to line 3 making it looks very un even. Can
   someone help me somehow pull it up so it is adjacent to first line of paragraph.
 * [http://www.happyhourmunch.com/on-the-border-happy-hour/](http://www.happyhourmunch.com/on-the-border-happy-hour/)
 * I use <div style=”display: block; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px;”>
 * this is Synchronous code.
 * But when I use Asynchronous code, at times the adsense code would appear in minitiature
   fonts displayed within the content
 * problem 2) TOP NAVIGATION BAR.
 * I recently switched from Restarateur Theme to Sundak and if you look at the first
   HAPPY HOUR MENU” you will notice that when i made sub menus A-F, G-M and so forth
   and A – F DROPS DOWN on G -P AND Q – Z
 * and further there no possible way to get to G – P OR Q – Z even though I set 
   it up perfectly in the menu.
 * Please any help would be extremely greatly appreciated !
 * Thanks

 * 1) You’ve got two `<br>` tags contained within the `<div>` that contains your
   ad, surrounding the comment `<!-- ON THE BORDER SQUARE -->`. How did you add 
   your ad code to that post? I noticed you don’t have that problem on the second
   ad on the page, the one following the heading “On the Border Happy Hour Food 
   Menu”.
 * 2) For your navigation menu, try this custom CSS. If your theme has a built-in
   custom CSS option, use it; otherwise, get a [custom CSS plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css)
   and put:
 *     ```
       .site-menu ul ul {
       	position: absolute;
       	top: 0;
       	left: 250px;
       }
       ```

 * hey thank stephen.
 * You guys are soo helpful.
 * Unfortunately, I have no knowledge of Htlml.
 * I usually just paste the adsense code before the paragraph and use the code
    
   <div style=”display: block; float: left; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px;”>
 * before the the ad and </div> after the ad code
 * and Asynchronous usually only works for me in the beginning and then when as 
   i make new codes usually i am stuck with synchronous and I have same exact problem
   in my second
 * they usually look really bad as you can see
 * and usually the number one problem is that the square alot of times would align
   with the third line and I wish I could pull them up.
 * so let me try your instructions . because i already have custom css plugin installed.
 * and about the br tags, let me try to look for them !

 * Are you using a plugin for your ads? It looks like it’s only the first ad on 
   your site that has the issue; when I looked at your site the first time, all 
   of the other ads were correctly aligned with the text.

 * Can you tell me how I could remove the extra 
    ?

 * Can you edit the post and look at the code in the Text editor instead of the 
   Visual editor? Are there any extraneous spaces or line breaks within the containing`
   <div>`? I would look around the comment `<!-- ON THE BORDER SQUARE -->`. Are 
   you using a plugin to generate your ads?

 * I paste them manually into the text side not the visual editor
 * before the <div> i have this :
 * <p style=”text-align: center;”><span style=”font-size: 18pt;”>_**<span style=”
   color: #000000;”>On The Border Happy Hour</span>**_</span></p>
 * and after </div>
 * I have this :
    <span style=”color: #000000;”>On the Border Mexican Grill and 
   Cantina, commonly referred to as simply On the Border, …….alone.</span>
 * Also, If I search for words in the search bar in the header, It has stopped working.
   Nothing happens after typing and clicking on the magnifying glass.
 * This was working fine till yesterday as well.
 * Any suggestions ?

 * What code do you have within the containing `<div>`? It’s important to reproduce
   the code exactly as it appears in the editor, so you should probably make sure
   to either use the “code” button here or post the code to [Pastebin](http://pastebin.com/)
   and post the link here.
 * As for your search issue, I can’t reproduce it on my end. What browser and OS
   are you using?

 * I’m not sure exactly how much of the ad code you could change without breaking
   the ad itself, so I wouldn’t recommend trying it.
 * Just as a test, what happens if you take lines 4-6 of your paste and make it 
   all one large line instead:
 * `// ]]></script><!-- ON THE BORDER SQUARE --><script src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.

 * I will see if it works in my other pages too.
 * I just joined everything from where you told me to. Amazing. I will try this 
   on my other pages too !
 * by the way would you know how to show 2 of my link text ads
 * you will see those in some of my pages and i wanted right under the square but
   it moved away to the right a bit
 * [http://www.happyhourmunch.com/applebees-happy-hour/](http://www.happyhourmunch.com/applebees-happy-hour/)
 * but i had more text then it would not do that.
 * and I wanted to put two of those next to each other.
 * Would you know which div code I could use to acheive that ?

 * those of those 3 line text i wanna put next to each other horizontally

 * To clarify, are you referring to the three text links “Applebees Happy Hour”,“
   Happy Hour”, and “Applebees”, all with a blue triangle before them? Unfortunately,
   I don’t believe you can change their alignment. They’re contained within an `
   <iframe>`, and you can’t write custom CSS (or JavaScript) that “crosses the border”,
   so to speak.
