Table width help! and welcometext in global...??

[tpearl5]

I need some help with this. I've been stairring at the templates for hours and I can't figure out why 'showthread' table isn't 100% wide.

Check it out:

http://johnsworld.com/tattlerboard/forumdisplay.php?forumid=2

Click on the thread. The top header is 100% wide. Can anyone tell where I'm going wrong? I tried loading back the original template (showthread) and still, the tables weren't 100%. All opened stings should be ended??! I'm confused!

Also, I'm trying to find a way to get $welcometext in the forum pages. (or all of them for that matter) I'm not sure what to do with global.php. I don't want it to go in the header so, that option is out. I tried adding variables with success

Scroll down to find "Page Layout" and edit the "Body Tag" you proboly have somthing like this ya wanna set to 0 not 10.

leftmargin="10" topmargin="10" marginwidth="10" marginheight="10"

Although I didn't think about that, that's not it! I just can't seen to find anything that would be making the table smaller then everything else.

Anyone else wanna take a shot?

In your nav links

you have (in html output)

<!-- breadcrumb, nav links -->
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<table border="0" bgcolor="#000000" width="100%" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1">
<tr bgColor="#D6D6EA">
<td></td>
<td align="right">
	<font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b><a href="index.php?">The Tattler Board v2.0</a> &#187; <a href="forumdisplay.php?forumid=1">Main Category</a>&nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;<a href="forumdisplay.php?forumid=2">Main Forum</a>&nbsp;&#187;&nbsp;test2</b></font></td>
</tr>
</tr>
</table>
</table>
<br><br>
	<!--
	<td valign="bottom" align="right" nowrap><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">
	<a href="showthread.php?threadid=2&goto=nextoldest">&lt; Last Thread</a>
	&nbsp; &nbsp;
	<a href="showthread.php?threadid=2&goto=nextnewest">Next Thread &gt;</a>
	</font></td>
	-->

<!-- /breadcrumb, nav links -->

Instead - put this in your showthead template:

<!-- breadcrumb, nav links -->
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" width="100%">
<tr><td>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#000000" width="100%" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1">
<tr bgColor="#D6D6EA">
<td></td>
<td align="right">
	<font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"><b>$navbar</b></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<br><br>
	<!--
	<td valign="bottom" align="right" nowrap><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">
	<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&goto=nextoldest">&lt; Last Thread</a>
	&nbsp; &nbsp;
	<a href="showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&goto=nextnewest">Next Thread &gt;</a>
	</font></td>
	-->

<!-- /breadcrumb, nav links -->

Let me know if you have an errors or have any problems....

rockergrrl,
All that code is actually in my $navbar template. I should clean up the tables a little, I know. However, I just found out what my problem was!! I can't believe I overlooked it! It's that spacer!! It's an image! It's in there by default! (look at the white spaces left and right) DOH!!


Next question... the $welcometext in the $navbar ?? I've tried copying the code into globals with no success.
