Inconsistent page width

I've been searching for many days now and I still can't figure out why the pages look different.

Actually it's just the catalog page that looks off from all the other pages...

catalog: www.simpleorganica.com/catalog

other pages just click on any button

 

The catalog page is wider, and taller i think.

 

I use sts templates to make the template, and all the page uses the same template, i've tested that

The template sets a table width at 770px. I think somewhere on the catalog page is overriding that, or may be the contents are bigger or something. It's also too high (as in position of the page)

 

I also tried:

 

-using the fixed with using CSS from the contributions page, it didn't make any difference

-adding a <table width="770"> in the header.php as described in the oscommerce help page, didn't work

 

Please help... >_<

Your first frame of reference for any rendering issue is a tool that comes with almost every browser, 'View Source'.

 

Compare the generated html source code of your pages to narrow down your problem.

 

Other than that, this is not a 'General Support' topic. Use the add-on's support thread.

For ALL problems, please review this link first -> osCommerce Knowledge Base

Standard html code will allow items being displayed to override any setting on the page for width. So if your template is set to a width of 770 and you have an image with a width of 800 (or the sum of a number of images and text), the page will stretch to 800.

Thank you so much

from what you posted, I took out the $content and the layout is fine. I think it's the box on the bottom of the index that's stretching too far or something.

 

Now I have to figure out where to find it and take it out.

 

One more step toward the goal. Thanks again! :lol:
