Is it me only or is everyone else who read this post waiting for Part 3 where you describe how to rotate different banners with javascript? Please take some time to post this information and don’t leave us clueless and waiting…

I am having some display problems in IE. No matter how I tweak the IEhack.css file I can’t get it to work. I either have a scrollbar above the #catfish and a double scroll on the right. I’ve been able to prevent that from happening but then the image get’s stuck in the middle of the page and doesn’t scroll at all. I’m not having this problem in ff or chrome or IE6…

“At SitePoint, we serve a range of different Catfish ads in rotation. The ads themselves are deployed via JavaScript, rather than appearing statically in our code. Information about how this can be achieved will be the subject of a future blog post!”

Please, Where that post?

Hi, Can the catfish ad be served through a ad engine such as openad’s or must be hardcoded to the site..?

It’s unlikely that it would be supported by default but it’s just CSS, HTML and JS, so making OpenAds use catfish units shouldn’t be super difficult.

Ours are served by a custom system, so I can’t give you a definitive answer on OpenAds, though I know other sites are now using the Catfish on a larger scale than we are.

Stupid questions, but where am I doing this:

margin-bottom: -79px;

and this:

/*
2 html {
3 padding:0 0 58px 0;
4 }
5 */

In the linked css file?

I did that, it hide it but it doesn’t come into view…

Any suggestions?

is it possible to have the link disable to users who have clicked on “close me”, and only to reappear again when unique, new ip, cookie/etc.
