Header Issues (align content in header)

[pkoper]

Hi,

I am trying to have everything in the forum a fixed width, just the header and footer to span the whole screen...

We set the content width to 1250 and doc_margin StyleVar to 0 which makes header and footer span the whole screen width. We would however like to have the content within the header like the logo to be within the boundaries of the content.

Is there any way to do this?

Thank you

Sure, you can do it with CSS. But, we would need an image of what you want and a link to your forum in order to play with firebug to do this.

Thanks for the quick reply!

This is to give an idea what we would like it like.

We basically want everything that is in the header to stay within the boundaries of the content.

This is the link to the forum

If you increase the padding in body_wrapper, then it goes somewhat like you want:
.body_wrapper {padding: 0 100px;}

You have your forum set to be VERY wide. Don't forget that not everybody will have their browser that wide. I know I certainly do not.

Increasing the padding only moves the content around, I think we might be doing something wrong.

Well, if I were to try to make a page just like that image, I'd probably make a background to go in the x direction that was green/gray/clear/green and put that down and then put thing where I wanted them.
