I have a couple of questions revolving around views.

What type of table does it render? Is it a standard HTML table, or some other type?

Also, if you go here: http://www.newcreationwoc.org/audio -- why are there a bunch of empty rows at the end of the pages of the table?

I have cleared cache both out of the SQL table and my local machine.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Yes it is a table built on the fly with HTML and can be seen by viewing the source code of the page after it is rendered.

Are there any filters on the view?

No, there aren't any filters on the view.

I am guessing only certain content types have audio so you probably want a filter on the Node: type.

Now I'm wondering how exactly I get the table to have a specific width, rather than 100% of the fields in the rows? I'm sure its something to specify in the "views-list.css" file, but I'm not sure how I would specify it....

Any assistance would again, be so very appreciated!

THANKS :)

You can add something like to to you themes style.css file

#audio_content table  {
  width: 350px;
}

You probably want to add it add the end of style.css

Wow, your site looks great... can you tell me what modules you are using. How do you add those flash images on the home page?

The rotating images are from the JW Image Rotator which is a 3rd party script and can be ultilized with SWFtools.module I believe.

As an aside, this can be done fairly simply without flash and just a bit of jquery. Check out http://teddy.fr/blog/featured-content-slideshow-with-drupal

The flash is indeed done using a combination of the flashnode module, and jw image rotator. If you need some assistance on this part, let me know - at times it was a big pain to get this to work!

I am using quite a few modules, I will post a list later, but some of the core ones (outside of the Drupal core) are Views, CCK, & SWFTools. There are quite a few other ones that extend functionality. Again, I will post the whole list later, and also include a short description on what we use them for :).
