acech, lookin good. Have you checked either the body tag or the main table that is started in inc_header.asp for the page margin? I wonder if that isn't it.

The reason I asked for a link was to check the HTML that is ending up at the browser for the source of your padding. I might have some code for that floating around. I won't be at my house for the next week so I don't have easy access to my code library at this point in time.

I almost want to say all you would need to do is use some CSS to set the main table's margins to 0...

As long as its working. I would be interested in how you handled it.

I've noticed that if you give 5 programmers the same problem, you tend to get 5 different solutions if there is more than one way to do it. Seeing how other people handle things has given me a lot of insight into various things over the years.

Panhandler: the design of snitz is essentially <table>s nested upon <table>s, so if you want to modify a specific part part of the design like the header, all you need to do is locate that specific <table> so you can make changes to it.

Try this: fire up inc_header.asp, locate any <table> tag somewhere in the code, and add bgcolor=red to that tag. When you look at the resulting page you can clearly see which <table> you're editing (I found the correct one with a little trial and error):







With a little editing, you can get it to look like this:

Got it!
(nice teaching skill that you have there)
Inserting bgcolor=""red"" got me to this step:

The challenge now is to move that red highlighted block of code into the INCLUDE file,
which is directly above the forum body.
