Corryms Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Hi Everyone, I need some advice on how to make my website, dirty-london.com wider. At the moment the 'Categories' and 'Info' boxes are very close to the middle area and i'd like them off to the edge of the page without creating horizontal scroll bars for smaller screens. I've searched around but haven't found a solution that works, also i've not got STS installed at the moment. Thanks for your help :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 The width is controlled here in the content: <table style="width: 718px;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> Chances are you'd have to make more changes than just editing that line to make things look "decent". There are a lot of "width: 345px;" (or similar) statments in the source. Obviously a template designed when 800px wide monitors were the norm. But you have a more serious concern......

Corryms Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Hi, What width would you recommend I change it to? Even when I change the width to 1024px, the boxes still arn't far enough along on my screen. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germ Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Personally I think you should try to find a more "modern" template. I like to help out here on the forums, but I'm not going to redesign your template. I don't mean that in a rude, crude, or obnoxoius way so please don't take it wrong. It's really not meant that way. :blush: If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
