Do you have a link to the site for us to see? From what you described in your last post, it looks like your ja-slidenews-item classed item is going to show up in each of three different spotlights. are your news items then showing up in one module position for each spotlight or are there multiple slidenews items in each spotlight?
Can you use the width on the spotlight definition in Extensions…Template Manager…Layouts tab to force the width? In the case of a single item in the spotlight, such as the leftmost position, you would do something like this:
<block name="top-spotlight" type="spotlight" special="left" specialwidth="40%">user1,user2,user,user4</block>
In this case, the module in position user1 (the left position in this example) would be 40% of the total width of the page and the remaining three positions would split the remaining 60% at 20% each.
Also, when I’ve done styling of the individual module positions within a spotlight on sites I’ve worked on, I have had to be more specific in my css for the position – something like:
div#topsl div.ja-box-left {
something: somevalue;
}
Does this help at all? Again, if you post a link to the site maybe that would shed a little more light on it.
