Yeah, that's where I'm looking too.

I fixed it by just changing the css. I was able to add one for 15%, but for whatever reason when I tried to add one for 20% to make a 15%, 65%, 20% it wouldn't work unless I used the existing one they had in there. Very confusing...

Excellent. I'm glad you've solved it . Now I can stop battling with vb.org and vb.com needing multiple page refreshes just to navigate anywhere. I'll have to look further in to that some day.

k, so I've decided to go to a fixed, fluid, fixed combo for the grid, but I can't figure it out...imagine that. Can anyone on here tell me how to do a 200px, 100%, 200px and a 240px, 100%, 240px grid xml? Thanks for the help,

Chris

Try these. No guarantee that they'll work though. I've removed my CMS in favour of using Logician's Webtemplates and so I can't test on my board. If they don't work then those widths probably aren't defined in the .css

PHP Code:

I appreciate it...I ended up hiring a guy to knock it out...sick of messing with it, honestly.
