who knows css?

[tonymcclellan]

basically if you look at my blog I cannot figure out how to move my main content closer to my sidebars. there is that unnecessary gap between them that is taking up too much space and either i make my content box supersmall to fit my opt in box or...

can anyone fix it? ive been searching the internet for an answer for hours.

basically i want to keep it under 760px. but the space between those two items is white and dead. i must keep the right sidebar at 230px. Basically if i could find a way to eliminate the white I could have a larger main section for content.

i know CSS a little...dabbled with it really...nothing major like your page.

looking at it, the 2 possibilities i can find might be the:

</div><!-- #sidebar --><div class="spacer"></div>

or

<div style="padding:5px 0 5px 0; text-align:center">

I'd look at the first one listed as it occurs multiple times and 2 of those instances are for sidebar references.

Other than that I don't know. If I had dreamweaver installed on my backup PC I could look more into it. Hope it helps.

You actually helped me out by looking at the source code which showed me a few things I want to change. Like the fact that my header is set to repeat.

Can I bring the whole code down into dreamweaver? I have MX but was messing aroudn with the style.css file which doesnt show the things the source code does.

Adobe's got a decent tutorial. Give this a shot:

I think MX was the version I used to use. You can set the program to call from your webspace but off hand I can't remember how. I used to save and edit directly from my webspace. I used the split code/page view so i could highlight what i wanted to see and it would highlight in the page and vice versa. You can see what the html is calling from the style sheet by doing that so you can diagnose the problem.
