Thanks for your swift reply, UncoderMom. I PM'ed you the URL to the board.

I think my problem is due to the fact that I've built a surrounding table with width=100% around the tborder table. Unfortunately the tborder contains spacers (which use the spacer_open template), which are set to the main table width (980px). The extra 12px on either side of the table is causing it to break out of the forum's 980px fixed width layout.

I think the problem lies somewhere in the SHOWTHREAD / spacer_open templates...

I've seen plenty of forums nest their tborder tables inside other tables to create the effect that I am trying to create. I wonder how they do it?

I'll have another go at it tomorrow, but please let me know if you have any suggestions :-)

Thanks!
