Hello everybody!

This is driving me nuts, hope you can give me some insight..

I'm trying to get rid of the padding which surrounds the objects in the #container in the stylesheet and I can't seem to do it--mostly because that div doesn't list any padding :P. Am I just looking in the wrong place? Does that make sense?

Looking at the online demo I'm talking about the space between the outer border of the container/wrap div and the left column, utilbar, navbar & header.

Yeargh.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Adam,

you really need to have a look at your shop.css file in the stylesheets folder. Open the file with a text editor. You will see all the style settings for the various elements throught the site. If you're using vp-asp 6.50 then I think the setting you're looking for is

/* Encloses all content area under header */
#wrap {
padding:5px;
border:1px solid #e5e5e5;
}

You can change this padding to 0

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the reply, Carrol

Changing the padding in the #wrap doesn't do anything.. I can make it 200px or 0. nothing happens.. do you know if there are any other divs that control that padding?

The margin in the #container, #wrap line is just for the distance between the header and the body. When examining the various properties for the header/body, something called -moz-box-sizing: border-box; keeps coming up. I wonder if that has something to do with it? Deleting that line doesn't seem to have any effect though.

Bleh!

Hi Adam,

-moz-box-sizing is used by mozilla browsers to alter the default CSS box model used to calculate widths and heights of elements. border-box - the width and height properties include the padding and border, but not the margin. This is the box model used by Internet Explorer when the document is not in Standards-compliant mode

I think you will need to check the margin and border values of the various elements eg. #utilbar, #nav etc.

Perhaps someone else in the forums with a better knowledge of stylesheets could help out here

Regards,
