Adjustable Forum Width with Maximum
I know that I can adjust the forum width in the Style Manager where it says "Main Table Width" but I am not sure what to enter to achieve the look described below.

I would like the width to be variable up to 1000 pixels (or maybe up to 1200). However, I do not want it to be fixed at 1000 all of the time because I do not want members to have to scroll the width of the forum when they have a screen resolution less than 1000. I would like the forum to automatically adjust the size (shrink) when resolution is less than 1000, but maintain a maximum of 1000 pixels.

I have had the forum set to 100% so that it can adjust to differnt resolutions but I do not want it to be 100% on monitors that are widescreen and/or have a high resolution exceeding 1000 pixels. I would like the forum to stop expanding at 1000 pixels. Can anyone tell me how I can achieve this setup?

I am running 3.8.4 PL2

I know this requires some sort of code modification and I know some sites that have done this, but I have no idea how to get it done. It seems that with the wide variety of monitors/resolutions these days that this would be a popular setup. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
