I posted a question about this a long time ago, but didn't really get an answer I understood. Let me try again.

I'm wanting to set the overall width of the forum to a set value (900px). I'm familiar with a <div>, but where would I put the <div>? What file?

Thanks in advance,

J

My first thought would be to add it to the css

/* Page body */
body{
    width: 900px
    background-color: <% strBGC %>;
    margin-left: 0px;
    margin-top: 0px;
    margin-right: 0px;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
}

That was my first thought too, although I was thinking of setting the table widths, so instead of 

/* Tables */

.basicTable{

     border: 0px;

     width: 98%;

}



.errorTable{

     border: 1px solid #FD7D40;

     background-color: #FFF2E6;

     width: 98%;

     color: #FF0000;

}



.tableBorder, .wwgAdTable{

     border: 1px solid #B6B9CB;

     background-color: #FFFFFF;

     width: 98%;

}


use 


/* Tables */

.basicTable{

     border: 0px;

     width: 900px;

}



.errorTable{

     border: 1px solid #FD7D40;

     background-color: #FFF2E6;

     width: 900px;

     color: #FF0000;

}



.tableBorder, .wwgAdTable{

     border: 1px solid #B6B9CB;

     background-color: #FFFFFF;

     width: 900px;

}


Either way should do the trick i would've thought.

There's only 3 lines of code in header.asp, none of which are width related.
