Fitting forum headlines in this table?
Hello, we want our forum headlines listed on our homepage but we can not get them to fit in a 155 pixel width table. Here is what it looks like now,
http://www.racetunedimports.com/last10.php How should we hack to code so it fits in a 155 pixel width table? Our config page is linked below. http://www.racetunedimports.com/last10config.php Thank you for your suppport! |

can you post the config file as a text file? it just loads up as a blank screen.
also, think about knocking the posting time and date off... looks too crushed and will give you more realestate. [edit] whoops... think i misread... if you mean each row is too high, so you cant fit them in, read on... each column is as high as its highest part. In this, the date/time is 3 lines high, so the column is too. i gotta get around to study sometime... |

btw:
$maxthreads = "5"; <--you need 10 $showdate = "1"; <--recommend making that 0 $fs = "8"; <-- knock that down a bit if youre not getting enough of the headline on the line if you dont want to edit the code to fix the height of the posters name, just disable the posters name (lastposter = 0)as well and work from there... will give more room for the headline anyway. argh... been a long 3 days...:P |
