First off I would like to recommend you get FireFox with FireBug installed if you don't have it alrady - it is a fantastic tool for debugging CSS. Just click on an element in the DOM view, and it will not only show you where that element is on the screen, but also how it is styled and, more importantly, where it gets its styling instructions from.
Now for the problem at hand: the divs are explicilty sized. If you want to display wide lists, you probably need to increase their size. You will find all you need inside layout-navtop-subright.css, which is the layout used by default. 1 main column 530 pixels wide with a side column on the right 120 pixels wide. Both these sit inside the content pane which is 701 pixels wide, which in turn sits inside the page div which is 780 pixels wide (inside layout.css). To display a wide list, increase the size of at least the page, content pane and the main column. You may also consider using the layout-1col.css, which only has a single column for content. To switch change the name of the include file inside theme.css. Mike. On 2/19/07, christopherKwiatkowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hello All, Let me start off by saying that I am not a CSS guru. What I am trying to do, I feel, shouldn't be too hard. All, I want to do is to move all of the text and forms that are being displayed all the way to the left of the browser window to make room for some long data lists that we are displaying in our application. I have searched through all of the CSS and replaced the word "center" with the word "left". The application still shows up with everything centered in the middle of the browser window. Is there anyone that can give me a few quick CSS tips so that I can have a nice left-aligned application? Thanks in advance!
