I feel like an idiot for asking this but... fixed style... how to?

[BirdOPrey5]

I always thought to make a style fixed (as opposed to fluid) I just changed the "Main Table Width" stylevar to something like 900px instead of 100%... However I did that and the only thing that became fixed width was the very top (the logo) and the very bottom of the page (where the style chooser and bottom of the page links are.)

You can see what I mean here: http://www.juot.net/forums/forum.php?styleid=23

I searched and it seemed to confirm what I thought, it was just a simple change to the stylevar: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=214466

But obviously not working... That style in my link is the default vb style with just the style var width set to 900px.

You also have to set the left/right margin to auto.

OK... thanks... I don't see a setting for that... I don't see it in the header/footer or CSS either... I veiwed source of some fixed width styles I see in the CSS .page there is a margin setting but I did that and it didn't change anything... what am I missing?

Hi,

Just use 900, do not add px to the end.
I have included an image for reference.

This here - http://www.juot.net/forums/forum.php?styleid=23 - seems just fine in firefox. Is this a browser issue you having?

It's working now that I took the "px" out of the box like private_ale suggested. Thanks.
