Hi folks,

I've managed to reduce the width of our forum to the size we want it but I can't for the life of me find a way to left align it on the page.

URL is www.marketingmixers.com/forum (http://www.marketingmixers.com/forum)

I'd appreciate it if anyone could help? I've searched this forum for information but couldn't find anything concrete.

Thanks!

You have to create one image, make it size 1x1 and make it the color of your background

Put the text in red before everything in your header template

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="1" background="images/yourimage.gif" valign="top"><img src="images/yourimage.gif" border="0"></td>
<td width="width of forum here">

And the text in blue will be at the end of your footer template

</td>
<td width="1" background="images/yourimage.gif" valign="top"><img src="images/yourimage.gif" border="0"></td>
</tr>

Is there no way to do it that doesn't involve such crude workarounds? Spacer gifs are soooo 1995.

Thanks for the help - appreciated - but there must be a better way?

Header Template:
Add at TOP
<Span class="EntirePage">

Footer Template:
Add at BOTTOM
</Span>

Main CSS:
Add to Additional CSS Definitions:
.EntirePage {text-align:left};


That should do the trick for you... Not entirely sure though...
