Hi,

I am bussy setting up my site and I really need some help for a template issue that I am not able to solve myself.

In order to see what I mean you will have to take a look at my website
and go to the forum area..

What do I want?

I want to have the forum the same look as the rest of the website that I run... Problem is that in the website a code is used that I cannot use in the forum apparently.

What do I have to do to get the same effect in the forum.

It's about the left and right side of the screen (the green with white stripes)

Please can anyone help me with this??????

The most important is that the heights are automatically adjusting so I do not want to use fixed pixels for the height as it will give problems for different pages...


A piece of code that is used on the pages looks like this:

<!-- left collumn -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#C3CC96" valign="top">
<tr bgcolor="#C3CC96" valign="top">
<td width="30" bgcolor="#C3CC96"><img src="../images/spacer.gif" width="30"></td>
<td background="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>divider-grey.gif" width="5"><img src="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>divider-grey.gif" width="5" height="1"></td>
<td background="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>pixel-dot.gif" width="5"><img src="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>pixel-dot.gif" width="5" height="1"></td>
<td background="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>divider-black.gif" width="2"><img src="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>divider-black.gif" width="1" height="1"></td>
<td width="900" bgcolor="FFFFFF">
<!-- /left collumn ends here -->

Hi,

Thanx for the response. I have to tell all that I am not a developer and that I know very little of coding... I manage some things, but this is getting out of my league. If someone can help me it has to be a good explanation otherwise i still will not know what to do????

I cannot see that the code for the left and right side has div's

It works in the site with this code <td background="<?echo(CONST_STR_IMGFLD);?>divider-grey.gif" width="5">

I think it's this special code that makes the left and right side always displaying the entire lenght of the page. I cannot use a fixed size for the height as that will give problems on pages that are longer. Hope that anyone understand what i am trying to tell...
