    help question Center Column height shrinking

    http://christiandivorceservices.org/...e=products_all

    Still underconstruction but you can see here where the center column shrinks to the text and does not at least fill the same height that the left column does.

    How do I fix this. I read similar fixes but none worked. On the pages it looks better on I actually added line breaks but this is unacceptable for a professional website.

    Default Re: Center Column height shrinking

    If your goal is to have the center column background color fill to the bottom then you need to add a class to this section of tpl_main_page.php

    <td valign="top" class="myNewClass'>
    <!-- bof breadcrumb -->
    <?php if (DEFINE_BREADCRUMB_STATUS == '1' || (DEFINE_BREADCRUMB_STATUS == '2' && !$this_is_home_page) ) { ?>
    <div id="navBreadCrumb"><?php echo $breadcrumb->trail(BREAD_CRUMBS_SEPARATOR); ?></div>
    <?php } ?>
    <!-- eof breadcrumb -->
    Then define your new class in the stylesheet.

    What is that I am putting into the stylesheet to tell the middle section to resize to the right height???? This is the part I am unclear about.

    NOTHING - will make the interior of that column "resize" - by doing what I said, you will have the illusion, that all of the columns are the same height.
