 * Hi
 * I’m using the ‘Category Post’ plugin to display posts from a certain category
   onto my sidebar at sozocinemas.com. My problem is this:
 * I need to bring the excerpt (in this case ‘the_content_rss’ element) below the
   title of the movie. Currently its positioned above it, and no matter how much
   I try it won’t position correctly. Here is the code I’m using:
 *     ```
       echo '<table float="left" style="margin:0 0 10px;padding:0 5px 8px -10px;border-bottom:1px solid #E8E8E8" width="100%"><td><div><li class="cat-posts-item-' . $post->ID . '"> ' . '<img align="left" width="96" height="60" style="padding-right:5px" src="' . get_post_meta($post->ID, 'thumbnail', true) . '"></div> <a href="' . get_permalink($post) . '">' .  $post->post_title . the_content_rss('', TRUE, '', 8) . '</a></td></table>';
       		if( $excerpt ) {
       			echo '<br />';
       			if ($post->post_excerpt!=NULL)
       				echo $post->post_excerpt;
       			else
       				the_content_rss('', TRUE, '', 8);
       		}
       ```
   
 * Please, note that I have manually turned off the ‘post excerpt’ function in the
   plugin, as that way it comes out of the table.
 * I know this could be very easy. I’m a designer, struggling in php :). I tried
   googling, too.
 * Help would be really appreciated!
