Rookie needs help with Left Hand Column...
Good morning.
I have been having some difficulty with a left hand column that I have been trying to set up and would appreciate any help: My forums can be found here: www.elcovaforums.com/forums You will notice on that page the left hand column and the table for the forums work as I would like them to. Everything lines up the way they should. However, when you click through to a thread where the posts extend down below the height of the left hand column, the individual threads seem to shift to the right (below the column itself). Example can be seen here: http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=16686 I am hoping there is a quick fix, but any assistance will be appreciated. Note: I was not sure of the netiquette, so did not post the code that I used in this post, but if acceptable, I will be happy to do it. I did add the code to this location: AdminCP>Styles>Style Manager>Common Templates>"header" box Thanks in advance for the replies, if I can make a request - detailed step by step instructions on how to get this fixed will be GREATLY APPRECIATED. Regards, Jason |

If you only added the code to the "header" template, then that there is going to be a problem. You need to open the code in the header, but it needs to close in the footer for it to work throughout the site correctly.

Rich,
I was hoping it would not be too difficult a task, however being the complete ROOKIE that I am, could you please offer step by step instructions. I have added an attachment to this post of the left hand column code that is in the header. 1) Should I keep the header code as is, or do I need to remove part of it? 2) What needs to be placed in the footer? Thanks again for your time! Regards, Jason |

Rich,
Figured it out. For those who might experience this problem in the future. Here is what I did: At the end of the code (in the HEADER section), I removed the "<!-- End Left Column Code -->" and replaced it with "$spacer_open" Then in the footer, I entered in the following: "$spacer_close <!-- End Left Column Code -->" Thanks for the tip Rich. Regards, Jason |

That shouldn't be correct either if you coded it correctly. You should have:
HTML Code:
</td> </tr> </table> Basically you should have a 2 column table (or 3 if you want a spacer). The $_phpinclude_output variable would be housed in the right column. The table would be closed in the footer for everything to be correct throughout the site. |
