Hello,

I need to add a left side column to my style but not the usual way (below navbar) but NEXT to the whole body.Let the screenshot explain.

Thank you

Begin the table at the end of the header template and end it at the footer and you should be good to go :up:

No that would start the table column BELOW the navbar,I need it next to the body ;)

$navbar is called after header o_0, not sure what you mean here. Can you provide a link?

Look at the screenshot.When I use the way you specified,it will display it below header,and I need it next to the whole forum body.

Your screenshot clearly shows the sidebar being below the header. If you want it to be at the same level as the header, then start the code at the beginning of the header template. ;)

Oh yes :),and what if I want it at the center of the body,not top?

You can use valign="middle" in your code.

Hm I did it and have put the whole forum into a table but then when I add the columns then the forum body width is smaller (because both column need to be in the 90% limit),how to avoid that?

I'm not sure what you mean. Of course the forum width is going to get smaller if you add something else to the page...

Can I somehow avoid that?

Not that I know of. Obviously if you take a page that has one main area with, for example, 100% width and add a sidebar/column that needs 10% of the width, you only have 90% width left for the main area.

I suppose you could stretch the page so that a horizontal scrollbar would be used, but I would find that very annoying if I were on your site.
