Hi, Sanna!

Here's some solutions:

MainMenu:
The beginning of the table should be like this:
<html>
<table cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<td align="center" colspan="2">

Note that "colspan" applies to the cell (td) element, not the row (tr)
element.
Also, for other cells, you can use
<td align="right" valign="top">
to align the text at the top of the cell. Then it should align
properly.


Add/change the following in StyleSheet to adjust the width of the
MainMenu:
#mainMenu {position:absolute; left:0; width:20em; text-align:left;
line-height:1.6em; padding:1.5em 0.5em 0.5em 0.5em; font-size:1.1em;}
#displayArea {margin:1em 17em 0 19em;}

For hiding the sidebar, see Eric's ToggleRightSidebar (1).

For setting the number of columns in tiddlers, see Eric's
SetTiddlerColumns (2).

For removing the shadow in the header, you actually need to remove the
foreground (at least that's how I did it).
Change the following in the StyleSheet:
.headerForeground {display: none; position:absolute; padding:2em 0 1em
1em; left:0px; top:0px;}

I'll see about the rest when I have more time.
