Hi, i created a few fields under a content type. When i create content the field is always above the body when published. its not that way when i am creating it though. The fields are below the body. how do i make them stay below the body when i publish the content? thanks

Views Module
You can use the views module and then place each field anywhere you want.

can i set up a view for a content type?and if so how do i get it to show a node not every node in that content? I dont want a filter i just want to rearrange they way content is displayed basically is there a weighted system for the way a content page is displayed. for example lets say i added some custom fields to the page content. well when i create an article in using the page content can i arrange the way it is displayed? if i want the fields to go above the body or below????
Under Drupal 5 when editing
Under Drupal 5 when editing a content type there was a display tab where you could change the weight and therefor the order of the fields on output.
Drupal 6
oh yah but that only changes the fields that i made in relation to one another. it doesnt have any affect on the body, which is what im trying to change the order of
kinda of a fix
I figured it out kinda.....well it seems what happens is if you enter the fields but put nothing in the body and save it moves it up to the top and the if you edit it and add some content to the body it places it below.... So basically you have to delete the content page all together and start over making sure you and something to the body so it places it before the fields. i still wish there was a way to manipulate it after saving it
