Setting width of vertical menu

pixeldust · #1 06-09-2008, 01:45 AM

I've noticed on my site that the left vertical menu changes size seemingly at random. On some pages it's 20% of the width of the page, and then on others it's over 50%.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

You need to make sure you have the main area set to 100% width.

How do I do that? Is it in each template or something controlled in the CSS?

customer/home.tpl

Replace this:

<TD valign="top" class="mainright">

with this:

<TD valign="top" class="mainright" width="100%">

pixeldust · #7 06-10-2008, 11:54 AM

Nope, didn't work

I had a look in the home.tpl in the provider directory to see if that needed to be changed, but there is no mainright line there. The problem is only occuring on the provider side it seems?

balinor · #8 06-10-2008, 11:57 AM

Sorry, not familiar with the Pro template structure

pixeldust · #9 06-10-2008, 12:24 PM

Bugger. Does it help if I post the home.tpl from the provider dir?

Nevermind, fixed it by setting "<td class="VertMenuLeftColumn" width="180px">"
