Site Map MS2-2.2, Site Map Page View Wrong

[mikey boy]

Hi,

 

I installed Site Map MS2-2.2 on my site www.loverstoyroom.com. It works fine, but it only looks OK when viewed in 800 x 600. Normally I run 1024 x 768 on my 19 inch monitor & it looks odd on my PC.

 

If you look at the site in 800 x 600 resolution it will look OK, but if you switch to anything higher you'll see that the side columns are pushed out, as if the central part where the site map appears is too wide. They should match the logo at the top, ie, much narrower.

 

I've played around with the settings until blue in the face, but after 3 weeks of tinkering & scouring the web I've not found anything that works. I can narrow the central part, but the left column is still firmly up against the left hand side of the window, all that happens is the right column moves in.

 

I don't know if it is a clue, but I also installed the "Link Share/Exchange" contribution & this has the same problem. No other part of the site is affected (Linkshare/Exchage is not present on the site right now).

 

Any suggestions (clean ones!) greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

I fixed this myself, after much headache. This PHP is REALLY hard stuff!

 

The problem was the template I used, which had the left & right info columns & a 800 pix wide banner. This banner was a fixed width, so the central info boxes had to be only wide enough to make the whole setup 800 pixels wide too.

 

However with the added contributions the central box was set to 100%, meaning it took up as much room as it could, hence the problem only showed up at higher resolution settings.

 

Altering the table info soon sorted it out, the central part had to be about 550 pixels wide & <p align=center> applied or it would be up against the left of the screen.

 

Simpler eally....uh, yeah.
