Blocks and width

Client Joined: Oct 06, 2003 Posts: 81

Hi there...

I seem to be having issues with blocks and width. I have my blocks.html in my themes dir set up to widths, but maybe I haven't done it correctly. When I write new blocks, they always seem to go wider than the block bg itself. Any clues on how to do this properly?

Thanks,

I give my blocks a width of 180px, the content inside should not break out the table unless it is an image larger than that, or a piece of text with no spaces.

Post your block.html code if you like. I will take a look.

That's probably the real issue. I made the graphics for my blocks at 154px. I really should re-do them as it causes less problems. I did however fix the issue I was having with the shout box overflowing. My blocks.html was a copy of an example and it was a nitemare. I hacked half of the crap out and it works properly now.

Thanks for the reply though. Have you seen my question regarding your example of grabbing data off a webpage for a block? Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!
