Firstly, if you don't abide by the forum rules, you don't get help.
Second, how is anyone s'posed to know what you're on about when all you provide is an email address?

You really need to be clearer, we are not to know that that email address can be used to search for your profile on friendster.com.
Now if you had taken due note of the first link Tyssen directed you to where it said :
You would have understood that it was pointless for us to visit at all; as visitors we do not see your changes. The page containing your profile is styled using a stylesheet called 'frontporch' unless were logged in as a member we can not see the styling and nor can we access the area that allows you to customize your code.
It may be the case that you can not change the fundamental structure of the page, in fact I would have thought it very improbable that friendster would allow members to possibly break their page/profile by altering structural layout elements such as tables.
The idea is to allow you some basic cosmetic styling and little else.
You have to understand that we are restricted in the help we can offer you unless you can provide detailed information for us.
It's possible that Triumph (who kindly posted the instructions to modifying your profiles) will come along and be able to provide some more knowledgable help but at the end of the day I really do think that This sort of instruction should be provided by friendster not by us.
This is a technical forum for web designers/developers we can help you with matters related to CSS/HTML coding but it is largely up to you to take that information and work it into your specific situation.
We can't tell you how friendster works it has it's own proprietary method of allowing you to customize CSS in your profiles.

This is going to get a bit boring.
Your code has a number of errors in it. This is the second post that has code generated by a third party 'mygen' how are you sure that this will work on another web site with their html tags and selectors.
Have a read of this thread as it is a carbon copy of this one:
http://www.csscreator.com/css-forum/ftopic12753.html follow that thread for any developments.
One other thing please use code tags when posting code and space it a little.
As said in that other thread we are unable to see what is happening with the code as you have to be logged in as a member to gain access and sadly as you state you don't have the knowledge of coding to provide us with the information we need to help you bit of a catch22 I'm afraid.

I have added this post to the other thread but will duplicate it here so that it is read.
A question to be answered please:
Is 'Myspace' the same as 'friendster' in it's coding and controls?
Do you know that code generated by 'Mygen' is meant to work with 'friendster' ?
Having had a look the Mygen site it looks as though it generates code specifically for myspace profiles, so you need to ascertain that these are also compatible with friendster.com
Mygen has a forum of it's own for help with it's generated code and installation it also has a series of tutorials to help on inserting code and modifying profiles this is where you need to be asking these questions not here, we can help with CSS coding but not with proprietary methods for specific sites..
It is now up to you to find out whether these are actually compatible with friendster or not that we cannot do for you.
