Hi;

I am in the process of implementing a new site design and was hoping someone could help. I have designed the site in photoshop and frontpage. I wanted to fix the size of the site to 1141.

As you can see by the screenshot of what i am trying to do, versus the problem with the live site. I hate to admit it but I am terrible with css and am using the garland theme with modified page.tpl.php

Hope someone can please help.

Many thanks in advance. Would love to get this issue resolved.

You have a table tag defining the width of your table in your HTML:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="1141">

Unfortunately, your style.css file has all tables having a 100% width. What I would recommend you do is assign an id to your table, like:

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" id="width-1141">

Then add the following to the very end of your CSS file (so it takes precedence over everything else):

table#width-1141 {
width: 1141px;
}

Alternatively, you can use an inline style like so:

<table ... style="width: 1141px !important;">
