Setting Table Width

[Dance Addict]

Hello,
Finally figured out how to edit the templates!
- templates/templatename/panels/PageHeader.html
- templates/templatename/Styles
- templates/templatename/WindowStyles

However, could someone please advise how we get the Tables to be width=745px (instead of 100%)

For example, http://www.dancescape.org/ezine/

Our top header is 745px, but the bottom part from ArticleLive is 100%, and we want that to be 745 px also.

Which template do we edit?

Thanks!

Along with setting the Table Width, how do we go about incorporating additional banner codes within the right menu area (Popular Articles/Popular Authors)? Which template do we edit?

Thanks for any tips.

OK, finally found it. For anyone else interested, we were able to develop the Template (difficult to use, however!) using the Templates area.

We now have www.dancescape.org/ezine set to fit 800x600 pixel screen nicely.

It was the styles.css file -- there is something called 'GlobalContainer' ... that is set at 800px, and this was the variable to change.

It would really help to have some kind of Template Guidelines/Demo Walk through to create templates, and typical things needed, such as changing size of tables, etc.

Now, if we can only get the Menu links to work!

Just FYI...on my site we use only one global header with a fixed table width. So whenever I pop that header code into anything, typically the rest of the page content/tables follow what the header does. That way I bypass using the .css file since it will always be the same.

Could you provide us with your code to do that. We edited the styles.css but it would be good to know this (or at least document this for future users!)
