Either delete it, or place "<!--" and "-->" around it, for example:

<!-- <div style="padding:0px $stylevar[spacersize]px 0px $stylevar[spacersize]px"> -->

ok, I commented it out and, well that keeps it from running off the page --

But the forum automatically adjusts size to fit within the size allotted - the members list and calander do not. They stretch so as to be larger then the header. Not running off the page, but not quite right either. any thoughts?

Installed, works perfect on the forums and the vb advanced homepage

Could you show me a screenshot, as well as provide the source one more? This is very odd.

HEre are some screenshots -- the first 2 are with both left and right turned on and you can see in the first one with forums its fine - but the second one, calander isnt.-- the third on is with only left on showing the same problem

what code do you want?

I'll need two sources. First, your /index.php with both sides enabled. Then your /calendar.php with both sides enabled.

here you go. I included member list.php because the calander and memberlist are the ones screwed up. -

Hrm.. I didn't mean I needed your .PHP files. I need the source. I need you to access each of those files/pages in your browser, then View Source and save them to separate files so I can open them on my end and twiddle with the source.

Make sure you have both sidebars enabled when you save the source, as I'll need that code in their, too.

As for the index, I need your forum index. Not vBadvanced index.
