    help question Columns not respecting width

    This isn't a sales plug. It is just easier to show than to try to describe in technical terms that my site is RANDOMLY squished and I don't know why (if the page looks fine, hit refresh a few times).

    Either The left column is expanding to fill a gap, or something in it is forcing the other two columns to be very small (I vote for something pushing the left column out) or even off the page.

    http://paintballwarehouse.com

    I do know that the CSS is "stock", so I don't think it is that causing the problem (glossy blue).

    I've beat my head against this for days. I downloaded firefox and some extra dev mods to allow you to see the css info (really weird, but when you outline the css info on a squished page, every time you change css blocks, the page magically grows back a small step until after enough mousing around, the page looks perfect).

    I've also played with showing table borders and the whole nine yards, but I'm stuck.

    Thanks for any help.

    I'm glad some people can't see it. Whew...

    Here are links to what I see.

    http://paintballwarehouse.com/squished.gif (all messed up)

    http://paintballwarehouse.com/overlap.gif (breadcrumbs overlap left column on non-squished pages)

    If the page isn't squished, then the breadcrumbs overlap into the left column. I picked glossy blue because it was the least noticeable, but I'm thinking it shouldn't be doing it at all.

    Thanks for looking.

    Yes and no. I didn't find it the first time, but I went back and found it (Configuration -> Layout Settings -> Left Column in my case).

    It seems to work!

    TY. I didn't know that was there, I was looking in all the code for where the width was set. Guess Zen already thought of that.
