I am working on getting a forum style setup. It fits like I want on the forum index, the forum pages, etc, but when I look in a thread it doesn't fit.

example 1 - fits fine
http://www.bonnevilleforum.com/index.php

example 2 - fits fine
http://www.bonnevilleforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=93

example 3 - doesn't fit
http://www.bonnevilleforum.com/showthread.php?t=276550

Now, I don't see anything in that thread that would cause the content to not fit within the margins. In fact, it does that in every thread, no matter what's the content of the thread.

Does anyone have suggestions on where I should look for a setting to make the threads fit?

Thanks,

Take a look at the source code on the showthread page. The part in red indents all the postbits by 15px on both sides:

<!-- open content container -->

<div align="center">
<div class="page" style="width:1000px; text-align:left">
<div style="padding:0px 15px 0px 15px">

<div id="edit1346621" style="padding:0px 0px 6px 0px">
<!-- this is not the last post shown on the page -->

Thanks for the reply. That is the settings on all pages, not just the showthread pages.

Sure, but that line shows up only once, at the beginning, in the page that works, and several times, at the beginning *and* before each postbit, on the page that doesn't.
