Hello all

I am having a devil of a time setting column widths. My senario is a three column table with five rows. The side columns are the left and right module positions and the center ifor the body or main section. It all works beautifly except the column widths.

I initialy set them on the index.php page at 120 px, on the left and right leaving the middle at 100%, but it looks like a css file somewhere is over riding it and the left and right columns size as they please (about 150 -160 or so it seems)

Does anyone kmow where the setting is? I look at all of the css files and could not figure it out. I have been snooping around this and other forums but have missed the info if out there. Anyone have an Idea? Thanks in advance, MN

Perhaps the CSS switcher....

[admin]

Joomla has tables in the main content component.
Need to just for this in template dived template's

also IE padding issues etc.

it could be the local css so yes the CSS switcher.

Many thanks, I'll let you know how it works out for the benefit of the next noob.

This may be a given for most of you good people, but for the folks that are new to this: I was able to set the width of the left side column (where one might place the Left Module) in the modules.css file. In my case I went to the code block for the rounded corner example and found the line:

/* Module Content Control*/
div.module {}

and added a line "width: 180px" between the curly brackets. I am sure that this is a crude solution and there is bound to be a better way, but it worked for me.

Thanks again all! Regards,
