Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

Loads fine for me...

To extend the "wrapper" of the page look for the #contentMainWrapper and #mainwrapper in the css for the template.

Hope that helps.

Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

you currently have

div#mainWrapper {
	text-align: left;
	width: 750px;
	vertical-align: top;
	background:#fff;
	/*border:5px solid #333;*/
	}

change to:

#mainWrapper {
	text-align: left;
	width: 100%;
	vertical-align: top;
	background:#fff;
	/*border:5px solid #333;*/
	}

Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

You can change all of it - the problem is that the template you are using is using background images and is set to a fixed width - therefore when you change the width of elements you will wonk the background images.

The wrapper that controls the WHOLE page width is #mainWrapper

Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

I can go to your page with firefox and edit the stylesheet and changing the #mainWrapper width to 100% widens the whole page just fine, in fact everything now fits on the page instead hanging off to the right.

Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

The header wrapper is constrained by the main wrapper. So you would have to do it in reverse i believe....mainWrapper 100% headerWrapper 100% then content wrappers to a lesser amount. I think this is right, play with it.

Re: help!!!! header help and hosting query urgent!

plop this in your stylesheet and let me know if we are moving in the correct direction

div#mainWrapper {
	text-align: left;
	width: 100%;
	vertical-align: top;
	background:#999;
	border:5px solid #333;
	}

#headerWrapper,   #cartBoxListWrapper, #ezPageBoxList, #cartBoxListWrapper ul, #ezPageBoxList ul, #mainWrapper, #popupAdditionalImage, #popupImage {
	}
	
#logoWrapper {
	background: url(../images/shadow.gif) repeat-x bottom;
	height:105px;
	width:750px;
	}
	
#contentMainWrapper {
margin: 0em 0em 0em 15em;
background: #fff;
width: 750px;
	padding:0 .5em;
	}

I agree, it looks amateuristic. When yuo use moving images it better be clean otherwise i think it looks not professional. Just my opinion.:lookaroun
