Question

PHP Question, where to put

Asked by: ITGL72

http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm165/itgl72/upominglis.jpg

I have a 1 possibly 2 part question. Have a look at the image above first to set this up.

Would someone be able to help me change the way the upcoming events are displayed in this joomla module? I tried asking the admin for help but he was very short with his answer and support: http://extensions.qivva.com/forum.html?func=view&id=1543&catid=5 so I opted for help from the pros here.

Looking at my image an event currently will display entries like so:


06/01/2009 - 06/04/2009 | 08:00 - 14:00 GET-TOGETHER

I feel this is too long for the template column I use.

What I would like to do is have the title of the event ON TOP, and the date and time BELOW it so it would look something like this:

GET-TOGETHER
06/01/2009 - 06/04/2009 | 08:00 - 14:00

How can I edit to make it like so?

I was told it would be in the modules tmpl/default.php file and to put  a </br> in the appropriate place. This would not put the title up top but would atleast put the date/time on one line and the title of the event on the bottom.

I have the code for the default.php file listed below in the code section.

QUESTION 1: Would someone be able to tell me WHERE in the code below I would put a </br> to at the minimum put the date/time on one line and titel event on the line below it?

QUESTION 2: My original request of putting title up top, date/time on the bottom.

I'll settle at this point for just seperating the lines where the date/time and title are. Also, how would I BOLD the text for just the title?

THANK YOU
