Border break in theme.

Nuke Soldier Joined: Apr 08, 2007 Posts: 14

Ive noticed a break in the outside border of the theme im using at the line where the content area starts.

Theme im refering to can be seen at www.socalzt.com
The break can be seen on the right side right at the point where the content first starts and where the outside side border is.

Heres a pic of the problem:

My guess is that it's something with extra padding somewhere but I can't seem to find what it is. The original theme was Vtech2.

I think I found the code for that area in the theme.php file:

Code:

echo "</td>\n"
."<td width=\"10\" valign=\"top\" background=\"themes/VTech2/images/rt.gif\"><img src=\"themes/VTech2/images/rt.gif\" width=\"10\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\"></td>\n"
."</tr>\n"
."</table>\n\n\n";

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would star by rearranging your theme so that you have only one head and one body...

Then right click you non-desiered bar and see what images are there (a few vtech2-hd_XX.gif). Then delete that code, upload and try...

I deleted the code and that fixed the unevenness, but id still like to use that image so its not just a hole in the border.

Any ideas?

Ive tried adding 1px of padding to the expander image to see if that would even it up, but it just messed up the page layout.

Again any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I still don't understand what you want and don't want...

I would just like the header to be even with the content below it. When I removed the table containing the right-side border image it evened out but is there anyway to even it out without removing that image because then theres just a hole in the border.

Ups... I thought you wanted to remove the bar above your welcome...
Only now I realized the 10 nanometers border misalignment. Sorry.

What's the filename of the image you use in your right body border?

vtech2-hd_05.gif is the border image to the right of the header.

and rt.gif is the expanding border image on the side.

Remove the spacer.gif at the enf of the border...

Code:

It has been removed but it doesn't appear to have done anything.

That sould have been enough...
The table is set to 100% and that row ends with the border image...

However, you have others at the enf of it...

Code:

</EMBED>
</OBJECT></TD>
<TD>
<IMG SRC="themes/VTech2/images/header/spacer.gif" WIDTH=1 HEIGHT=22></TD>

Try deleting'em all until it works (header only)...

I found which ones were causing the extra space (about 3 of them), but once I removed them the whole header messed up. Would deleting all the spacers work?

Messed up?
Just try until it works...
