Hiya,
I tried this latest additions but it doesnt seem to have made much of a difference. The main site is http://www.oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag and you’ll see that at the top there is still a gap between the main menu (magazine) and the featured articles section…its the same with the footer. Also if you go to the calendar here: http://oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag/index.php?option=com_events&Itemid=268 it doesnt fit with the design or if you go to downloads here: http://oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag/index.php?option=com_docman&task=cat_view&gid=907&Itemid=239
You can see how the background takes over again instead of being white…also as mentioned the sides need to be brought in a bit so there’s a bit of a border. Its almost there though its just those aspects….many thank for all your help and work so far – i know other people will use this on it as well. thanks.
July 18, 2008 at 10:52 am #260710Hmmm…i made some changes e.g adding modules to the calendar section and it seemed to make the background white – be it a little glitchy on the loading, take look: http://oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag/index.php?option=com_events&Itemid=268
Then, when i go to downloads, theres a white bar then at the bottom…little confusing – this is using docman. check here: http://oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag/index.php?option=com_docman&Itemid=272
If those can be fixed, it literally then reducing the header and footer space and then sorting out the borders…can someone attach their actual templare cc file if they get this working ok? i changed mine but may have made some mistakes on it, so if i uploaded some one elses this wouldnt matter would it?Many thanks again!

July 18, 2008 at 11:14 am #260713Read trough here and add what i marked in RED and delete what i have marked in BLUE and replace what i have marked in GREEN:Find line 548 in the template.css
#ja-container {
background:#FFFFFF url(../images/vline.gif) repeat-y 65% 0;
padding:4px;
}
Line 632:
#ja-containerwrap, #ja-containerwrap-c, #ja-containerwrap-cm, #ja-containerwrap-f, #ja-containerwrap-m {
background:#333333;
clear:both;
margin:0px 0;
padding:20px 0;
}
Line 1057:
#ja-footer {
border-top:5px solid #ABABAB;
color:#666666;
padding:10px 0;
position:relative;
}
Line 25:
body#bd {
background:#FFFFFF; REPLACE WITH #333
color:#333333;
}
When you have done this you have have a couple of small thing left to do.July 18, 2008 at 11:37 am #260715OMG! So close thank you! If you go to http://www.oliverjamesenterprise.com/fourshiresmag you’ll see i have made those updates – however you’ll see that the main content in the middle is not quite in line with the title section and the footer section. If i go to letters and dog and select dog the blog is also not working – though i have noticed that it seems that if i have certain modules unpublished or if there is no left and right published the background seems to come across…not far to go!
Many thanks…
July 18, 2008 at 11:39 am #260718Is there a way to perhaps extend the width of the top section and the footer section to match the middle section – i see youve extended it to get that border around it…

July 18, 2008 at 1:14 pm #260738I was changed also my sides. May be is not the best way but is working.
In the template folder – index.php i put a table.
After: <!– END: MAIN NAVIGATION –> put:<table width=”980″ border=”0″ align=”center” cellpadding=”0″ bgcolor=”#FFFFFF”>
<tr>
<td>Find <!– END: FOOTER –></div> and put after:
<td>
</tr>
</table>Now you can change the background with any color or picture.
Find body { in Template.css and put:
backgroundr: #eaeaea;July 18, 2008 at 4:20 pm #260755Hi,
Unfortunately the table approach doesnt seem to have quite the same effect. Is there any way that the line that appears across underneath the main menu can be set so that it only matches the width of the white section and the width of the menu? Also, is there anyway to indent the menuand the headers etc to the right a bit more so theres more of a border so the main text not being so close to the grey colour. And, is there anyway to align the middle section with the header and the footer sections or to expand the header and footer to match the middle section?Many thanks again….sorry i am asking a lot your help is very much appreciated
