I want to make three column in the main body.

Total 960px, left 210px, main 540px and right 210px.

I changed css and added in the htm as well.

Also I added right column in the shoppage_trailer.htm ( I added shoppage_trailer.htm at the end of this post.)

I changed the width of <td id="main" class="vt" width="540">, <table id="al" width="540">.

I also changed the width of tmp_frontpage.htm which controls randomproducts and <table width="540" align="left" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">.

I opened the file shop$colors.asp and changed the following line:

Const FrontTable="<table border=""0"" align=""center"" cellpadding=""5"" width=""540"" cellspacing=""0"">"



However the random products width is still more than 540px and right column is pushed to right and width is less than 100px.

Could anyone tell me how to and which file I need to change in order to control random product?


Thanks in advance.


shoppage_trailer.htm is like this.

I have tried it but it does not work. the result is the same as mine.

Have you made a three column with this code?

Thanks for your help.

Yes for me this is a three colum page.

You'll notice the extra classes for items in the right, I basically took all items called left in the shop.css, copied and renamed them right, then gave them attributes to the right rather than the left.
Also had to change tmp_default.htm and tmp_frontpage.htm (the two files that show the front and random content. Both these files need tables set to 100% or below and the class tags removing as they will push the width of your overall frontpage.
As I said you will have to mess around a bit to get it to work (basically alot of trial and error).
One final point, backup or save your files as you go, I had couple of times when I lost control of the page completely and had to back track to find what had gone wrong...

If anyone's having problems trying to switch on/off left/right panels etc, you'll probably find our vpasp panel splitter useful:
http://www.bigyellowkey.com/mysoftware_product_details.asp?prdid=201&opu=n

With that you can turn the right/left panels off by a simple function argument change. It took us a long time to work out how to get the panel splitter to be able to work with the 6.5 styles/contents, but we managed it in the end. It also means that if you wanted you could call the panel functions with different arguments in different pages if you wanted (eg use no right panel on your home page, but use a right panel on other pages etc).

We tried out the panel splitter to double-check that on 6.5 you can indeed turn the right panel on/off and still get the site working/formatted properly, and it worked fine.

The width of the column is not control by the table, is control by the CSS. Please look into shop.css
#container,#wrap ( this is the over all width, by default is 760px, change to 960px)

#left (this is control the left column width, by default is 25%, change to 210px)

If your right column is same width as left column, you can use the same css in your right column
<td class="vt" id="left"> </td>

#main (this is the main content area width, by default is 75%, change to 540px)
