Hello! I have spent quite some time trying to build a site to test JA T3 v2 and I love some of the features, hate some other (I had quite a lot of CSS related problems that I wasn’t able to solve in template/css/template.css and it was quite difficult for me to find out that there is yet another template.css that I need to tweak), but I am definitly enthusiastic about the project 🙂

However I have a problem I am not sure how to deal with now: until I publish something in left or right position, everything goes smooth. When I try to do that, all kinds of weird thinks happen (picture attached, can give site address on request). It seems that the proportional width of main, left and right interferes, resulting in displaying left and/or right below main. I am not aware of any changes in styles and weird thing is that everything works fine on Localhost.

The Firebug tells me these metrics (procentually 80 main and 20 left):

local: ja-mainbody: 960px; ja-main (768) + ja-left (192) = 960px – that seems correct
web: ja-mainbody: 960px; ja-main (768) + ja-left (?153?) = 821px???

The web results are strange, and still stranger – if the result is that the displayed elements do not take the full width, why is the structure collapsing?

What would be the easiest way to deal with this? If I was to edit default main width (which should be computed from the “colwidth” setting in default.xml) where would I find it?

Thanks for any tips!

Hi,
Width of ja-mainbody is 960px
– ja-main is children of ja-mainbody –> width of ja-main is 80% of witdh of ja-mainbody= 80% * 960 = 768
– ja-left is children of ja-main –> width of ja-left is 20% of width of ja-main = 20% * 768 = 153

Thanks, I should have seen that. I found the problem – I am using K2 category view to generate the page, and older articles had pictures with border setting. As soon as I unpublished those articles, everything was ok again. I shall timper with those pictures a bit…

Anyway thanks for your input!
