Left block resizing?

Hi,

I've been busting my nut on this one; after customizing my site, my left blocks are now resizing themselves against my will. I haven't been able to find where to specify a fixed size (as is standard in the installation).

Any help is most welcome.

You can see what I mean:

The default themes use a fixed width in leftblocks.thtml (by stretching a transparent 1-pixel GIF).

I tried that... but no. It only seems to resize on some pages, not others. Could it be in the header? Any other ideas?

But thanks,

I guess it's because of your banner (in the left column, at least on the front page).

You can only really set a minimal width reliably. For a max. width, you would have to rely on the CSS max-width property, which isn't widely supported (especially not by a certain much-used Windows browser ...).

bye, Dirk
