}
 
this seemed to fix my issues of the form growing and strinking
 
infact i changed all "font-size: ##px" to font-size:#-2pt". Fixed everything
 
what i mean by -2pt is lets say you have 19px make it 17pt, or 15px make it 13pt.
 
Hope this helps!
 
I tried that, but it didn't solve the problem...
Like Borg suggested... Frames should be taken off anyways.

If you are having problems with CSS styles, try using TopStyle Pro.

It's a great piece of software for setting up and editing CSS style sheets.

It would be better if you use the header and footer files to create the header, footer and sidebar.  This is the method I use and Borg uses on this website.  Much better than frames.]]> Fri, 21 Apr 2006 06:28:38 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/forum-overall-width-resizing_topic19434_post105098.html#105098 <![CDATA[forum over-all width resizing : Here it is, this is what i changed: /*...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/forum-overall-width-resizing_topic19434_post105068.html#105068 Author: ohiopbx

It looks like a very strange CSS bug in IE.

The only thing I can suggest is that you keep messing with the CSS till you find a result that works with your site in IE.

Loosing the frames may help, as frame are not good for search engine spidering and are being depreciated.

I tried changing them to 90... and I can see the change on the forum tables...but for some reason the page is still having scrolls at the bottom. If you have a minute you can see it here yourself...and click on Message Board. 
 
I'm using IE as most of my members use that browser.... with FF it looks fine.

It is the default_style.css file that controls the width of the tables used in the forum.

Most are set to 99% or 98%, but this could be chnaged to pixels if you wish. ie. 400px

I have a forum which is being used with left frames...I'd like to resize the width of the overall forum size, where can I make the change? The default_style.css does not solve the problem as I tried all table width sizes on that file.
