Good job. NightEyes... it looks great at your forum.   Its on the left side on your forum though.. not the right  Wink   You can also fix it so that you have the entire sidebar bordered and not each section under the titlebgs.   Shouldnt have to put the code in the footer to get it onto the right side;  but if it works,  what the heck.   Ive been foolilng around with it as well, and its possible to make it so that the background image shows thru (i.e. the background of the sidebar is transparent)   Its abit complicated to explain so Ive not posted how to do it yet.

Oh, I put it back on the left, I [refer it there. I had one member whinging because her browser wouldn't shrink the forum to fit her window anymore, and she made a huge deal about the bar being on the left.

Soon realised it was the image in m header not the side bar though, so moved it back.

this is the url for my test site, its on the right there....

No.  The code puts the forum into a table, with the sidebar on the left (or right) and the forum on the other side.

Ive seen some scripts that will do that.  Will see if I can find a good one that does it well and is easy to explain and use

Are you wanting a background image behind the sidebar?    Or wanting the background of the forum to show thru the sidebar?     Not sure I totally understand.   Theres a way to have your forums background show thru it;  I helped someone figure that out.  Ill have to go find the codes I used.

do you mean this one?  http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p133/lts19/smfsb2.jpg   and do you mean putting an image in place of the grey background?    Can use backgrounds in tables so there is most likely a way but I dont know it off the top of my head. Ill mess around with it.

It'll take some fiddling with that code to put a background image in the table.
When I have some time I'll play with it.. or maybe someone else will in the meantime.

I sent a note on to Roswenth and asked him if he would put the code here, with the background in it, cus the one he posted (that second one) does not do that when you use it.    May be faster then waiting on me to get it done  Wink

nitsua    I just played around with it abit.

Make sure you have put the necessary code at the bottom of the css for the stylesheet you are using:
Manage Styles > Modify Style >  choose the style you want to Modify;  go to the bottom and put the code in, then save it.  Refresh your browser to see the changes.


If you want it to have a solid background color put this in your css:

Code:

.tablepad    { background-color:#FFFFFF; padding:6px; border:1px solid #000000; }


Change FFFFFF  to the background color you want
Replace 000000 with the border color you want




If you want that area to have a background image put THIS in your css instead:

Code:

.tablepad   
{
        background-image: url(http://www.smfboards.com/Themes2/userstyles/Camo/camobackground.png);
        padding:6px;
        border:1px solid #FFFFFF;
}



Replace my image url with your own
Replace FFFFFF with the border color you want

Example (with background and white border):  http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s20/smfstyles/screenshot.gif

Yes, that's exactly what I would have said. Just know that if you use an image, it might show strangely if it's a pattern because each sidebar box is a variable size.

(I'm a 'she', BTW.)
