• I can’t figure out how to change the width en length of a page, i’ve read about master.css but nothing changes.

    my page

    My problem is with length is that if a page has little content the page (colored bg) doesn’t go the bottem but stops at where the content stops leaving a emty other colored space below.

    My problem with width is that i don’t know where i can change it, i’ve tried everything but it doesn’t change. Im using a theme from http://www.yvoschaap.com/wpthemegen and without sidebar and with Tabs: Top page tabs.

    The only way you can solve that is via javascript or a technique called faux columns (find with Google).

    Well i finaly found it, added width: 600px to the .item but now it isn’t centered, any suggestions ?
    Maybe it is centered but it starts at same place as the page buttons ?

    .item {
            padding: 10px;
    	background-color: #F2EDB1;
    	background-image: url(/);
    	background-repeat: repeat;
    	text-align:left;
    	border: 0px #FFFFFF;
    	margin-bottom: 1em;
    	border: 2pt solid #422C24;
            width: 600px;
    }

    Ok, i have yet fixed another part by myself, i must say support is very thin here, so problems take forever becoz i have to try infinite things and hope for the best.
    I’m just putting the code here so people can use it.

    Page-length i’ve fixed on a more simpler way without java, it now looks like its stretched to the bottem but it isn’t ofcoarse, used a background and centered it. (same color and width as the page ofcoarse, u can add width to the background and add a border like me)
    Code (i’ve only checked this in IE btw)

    body{
    	font-family: verdana;
            font-size: 95%;
    	line-height: 115%;
    	background-color: #A72E1D;
    	background-image: url(http://i35.tinypic.com/bgtu0z.gif);
    	background-repeat: repeat-y;
    	background-position: center top;
    	text-align: center;
    }

    And the other problem i was having with the page width edited it wasn’t centered anymore, fixed it with adding these lines to .item

    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;

    And now what is my last problem the tabbed page buttons, yui-nav thing, i can’t figure it out why it isn’t centered. Tried so much but i can’t figure it out.

    #menu { padding:0; border:0px solid #fff }
    #menu ul { list-style:none; margin:0; padding:0; font-size:85%; }
    #menu ul li { padding:0; margin:0; border-bottom:1px solid #FFFFFF; }
    #menu ul li a { ddisplay:block; padding:4px 4px 4px 4px; text-decoration:none; color: #262601; }
    #menu ul li a:hover { color:myheadttcolor; background: #FFGGFF; }
    
    li .categories, li .linkcat, li .pagenav {
    	list-style: left;
    	margin: 0px;
    	padding: 0px;
    }
    
    .yui-nav{
    	text-align : center;
            margin-bottom: 0px;
    }
    
    .yui-navset .yui-nav a:hover {
            background-color: #41524E;
    	color: #FFFFFF;
    
    }
    
    .yui-navset .yui-nav li a {
        background-color: #FFFFFF;
    	background-image: url(/);
    	background-repeat: repeat;
    	border-bottom: 0px;
    	border-top: 0px;
    	border-left: 0px;
    	border-right: 0px;
    	color: #000000;
    	padding: .2em .2em .2em .2em;
    	text-decoration:none;
    	font-size: 70%;
    }

    Look at my page to see the problem.

    Hope someone can help me, i’m begging. 🙂
