resize post/comment width??

    If you go to http://www.marginalspace.com and see where the left column meets the right column (white mets blue), you’ll notice the white area overlaps into the blue area due to the width of the posting area. Also, if you click on Comments, it further extends into the blue area and pushes my menu on the right down. Is there a setting to decrease the width of the posting area, or am i just going to have to increase the width on the banner, the container, etc.

    Thanks!

    If you take a look at your wp-layout.css file (in the css directory) , for the #maincontent element you have two different width settings (the reason for two is, the second is an old attempt to solve issues when viewed in Internet Explorer).
    Anyway, I suspect they should both be at 582px.

    Ok, it wasn’t the box model hack on the width, it was actually the padding that was the culprit. I had to knock it down from 10px to 5px. But, that sucks. It’s not life or death, but I would have preferred having my 10px of padding. Does this mean that the post/comment area fills to the width of your div automatically and that there is no way of controlling the width manually????
    Thanks for steering me in the right direction Kafkaesqui!
