: Need help setting fixed width... : webpartner April 25, 2008, 07:20:39 AM I accomplished this with no problem in joomla 1.0.15...
Now running joomla 1.5.2 on windowsXP professional... ------------------------------------------------------- I'm trying to set a fixed width of approx 996px But, no matter what I do it always re-sets to 967px --- (http://www.lazaruslog.com/graphs/sshot.gif) --- I can acheive the desired effect by changing certain statements in the index.php but... as soon as the mouse touches the active screen area it re-sets to 967px... This happens in all browsers & clearing cache has no effect... Can you please tell me which script or variable determines the final value of s5_body_container ? Thanks... Bob : Re: Need help setting fixed width... : mikek April 25, 2008, 12:07:16 PM Sorry about that, it looks like there was a line missing from the index.php file if you add the following into your index.php with the rest of the configuration variables (you will see them about 60 lines down)
$s5_alt_width_type = $this->params->get ("xml_altwidthtype"); then everything will work fine. Just set the slider to "no" so it's not shown and set your alt width. The template in the download section reflects this change. Regards, : Re: Need help setting fixed width... : webpartner April 29, 2008, 09:07:35 AM No wonder... I knew it had to be something
so simple I was just overlooking it... I made so many changes to the template that it was hard to separate the customizing changes from the changes I made trying to compensate for the fixed width not holding, so... Instead of undoing everything, I upgraded to joomla 1.5.3 and started over... seems to be working fine now. you owe me $1.27 for helping you debug the template LOL... Thanks Mike, Bob |
