Fixed width text area

I am using a variation of the Vivid_dreams_Aquamarine template that has a two column layout. The left-hand column is a fixed width and displays the Categories in a vertical bar. The content appears in the right-hand column and the content expands to 100%. This is fine when the browser window is narrow but shows extremely long sentences if the user has a widescreen. I would like to make the content have a fixed width.

I was able to do this for the product description and product details using the CSS but I can't find where to change it for the Welcome page or any of my static pages.

Re: Fixed width text area

I was able to fix the static pages by adding a DIV tag with a fixed width into the HTML pages, but I still can't figure out how to give the Welcome/Home page a fixed width.

Re: Fixed width text area

I am not sure if this is the best solution but it seems to have worked. I edited the file \skin1\customer\main\welcome.tpl

Code:

<div style="width: 600px">

    {$lng.txt_welcome}<br />

</div>
