<?php query_posts($query_string . '&orderby=rand') ?>

Hey all,

I’ve tried to implement the above piece of code into my portfolio page template.php.

It’s causing the css to break every so often. Reload it until it breaks and you will see what I mean. It pushes 2 of the portfolioitem blocks to the right a touch and forces the third to drop a line? 

<div style="clear:both"></div>
        <div class="gallery">
<?php query_posts($query_string . '&orderby=rand') ?>           
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

                <div class="portfolioItem">
                        <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="desctitle" title="<?php the_title();?>"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
                <span class="desctitle"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
</span>                     

                    </div>

            <?php endwhile; ?>
        </div>

  1. The error isn’t in the random layout code. It’s caused by an empty “tile” in your page. here’s the source of the offending tile:

    <div class="portfolioItem">
    <a href="http://www.some-things.net/work/love-jungle/" class="desctitle" title="Love Jungle"><span class="desctitle">Love Jungle</span></a>
</div>

    Notice there’s no image.
