Following on from my header problem which has been solved, sort of, the next thing that is troubling me is the bit of CSS tweaking that is needed to keep the "<div id="columns"> WITHIN the borders of the wrapper div, so that the borders become self expanding according to the size of the contents within.
Work in progress is here -
http://www.brummiesfans.com/coppermine/index.phpAs can be seen, this is a combination of the Curve style and the header code from phpBB3's "ProSilver", which I was a solution to a problem descriobed on another thread. I've now tried to add a second column to it. The menu div's are where you want them to be, as is the footer which is partially obscured by the overflowing columns div. The problem lies with the bit in the middle.
I'd appreciate the help of anyone who can tell me where I've gone wrong on this, so that I can take it forward. code for the template and css follow.
Thanks
Martin
