    Hey guys,

    My website (http://thedugoutsportsshow.com) needs some change. I'm trying to change the width of my columns.

    My site is a WordPress Blog, and I believe it is wordpress classic theme. I have two CSS files in the Design tab.

    I want to change the width of all three columns.

    Can someone help me? Let me know if you need further information about the site.

    Thanks

    hey, you don't need .css to change it because your theme is table based.

    you need probably to change your index.php, home.php, single,php, page.php as there is no global options (css) for all of them.

    to change the left column find:
    
    <td valign="top" align="left" width="167" style="background-image:url(wp-content/themes/classic/leftbar.jpg); background-repeat:repeat-y"><div style="padding: 0px 7px 0px 7px; font-size:11px; font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; position: relative; top:-45px; z-index:1"> 
    Code (markup):
    and edit 167 to your own number.

    i just went quickly and i see no indication for the middle column so it is the diffrence between the left and right column, the right column is the same story it has no fix width, it is determined by the objects inside it, in other words.. a total mess

    Yea, I finally found where to fix the width.

    If you go to my site, I changed the overall width to spread out the columns a little more.

    But what you are saying is I can change the left column width, but not the center or right column?

    Also, do you know how to put in a drop down menu in? I am seeing a bunch online to choose from but not sure which one to pick....
