First and foremost, version 7.0 is an excellent application. After numerous hours of internet browsing and testing ASP applications, I always find myself returning to Web Wiz. Now I know that I only need one bookmark for such purposes!

My query is rather embarrassing, as it appears to be a simple manipulation of tables, but I cannot figure it out... Version 7.0 is well-documented and scripted for configuration. After mingling with the code, however, I have been unable to effectively configure the alignment (left, center, right) of the entire forum. The default is center, but I would like to align the forum to the left (maintaining centered menu buttons overhead).

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

A good way to do that (I think) is to edit the header.asp and footer.asp. Put the whole forum in a table.

I tried to use the header and footer for forum alignment. Perhaps I am making a mistake in my code. I assume that one would simply initiate a table in the header and then close it in the footer. Right? But when I insert <table align = "left"> in the header and </table> in the footer nothing happens...

You still need to give it a cell so do:
<table width = "100%"><tr><td align = "right">
in the header, and
</td></tr></table>
in the footer.

I have been trying to add a table on the left side and haven't had enought time to completely figure it out.  But here is what I found.

What I found was I had to create a file with a table, then include it in the \forum\default.asp file.  Then I found that I had to alter the \forum\includes\skin_file.asp file to get the tables correct.  The skin_file.asp is where I found all of the table variables.

Hope that helps a bit.  If you know of a way to add a table to the side and have it be for 100% of the height please let me know.
