IIIIIIIIII Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I am trying to change the width of my site, and set it to stay that dimension rather then increase/decrease with the size of the browser window... but my style sheet has about 3 short lines of code spread across 2 pages. Is this an error? or am I losing data when saving it to my computer. I also tried changing the color of the borders around the catergories and that isnt working either, it just goes white no matter what hex value I enter. Any advice?

Make sure that you use a pure text editor and backup your file before you make changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
