Centered Categories

hpluver88 · June 21, 2006, 12:23:04 AM

This is my first time using a Coppermine gallery and attempting to create a theme for it.

My goal is to have the gallery centered, and I achieved that--to a certain extent. Now all the main categories are centered as well ("Movies" "Merchandise" "Scans" etc).
This is how it looks like so far:
http://www.rupertgrintgallery.com/coppermine/

What I'd like to do is have the main categories aligned to the left such as this site:
http://www.robertpattinson.org/gallery/index.php

The following is the coding I have so far in the template.html file:

Quote<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="{LANG_DIR}">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset={CHARSET}" />
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache" />
<title>{TITLE}</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="themes/custom1/style.css" />
{META}
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js" ></script>

</head>
<body>
{CUSTOM_HEADER}
<CENTER>
<table width="747px" height="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" style="border: 1px solid #CCD7E0; background-color: #FFFFFF;">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td width="100%" align="center"> <img

src="http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/5325/rggheader7jk.jpg"></center> <br/>

{SYS_MENU}<br />{SUB_MENU}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="15" alt="" />
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top">
{ADMIN_MENU}

{GALLERY}
<div style="text-align:left;">
<div>
           {LANGUAGE_SELECT_FLAGS}<br />
           {THEME_SELECT_LIST}{LANGUAGE_SELECT_LIST}
           </div>
           </div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
{CUSTOM_FOOTER}{VANITY}
</body>
</html>

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yea... I checked last night after a few beers

and couldn't see any problems. Everything looked as it should so I thought you had either fixed it or I was seeing things. Looks like my eyes were working after all.

Really? That's strange because this is how it looks like for me:

I'm looking for all the categories/text with the dark green background to be aligned to the left, and they're still centered. I really doubt I solved the problem unless it's only showing up like that for me! lol

The categories look left-justified for me in both Firefox and IE. They do *not* look like your screencap.

I thought this thread (with its solution) might be related to your issue until I saw no problem in IE:
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=32513.0

In other respects, it's similar in that you have categories with no immediate albums looking funky to you in IE. So you might try the solution from there. (Note that the correct solution is near the end of the thread.)

Now I see the issue
you should change your default theme to "custom1" instead of water_drop

*slaps forehead*

Well, it's working now! Both Paver's and vmossavari's suggestions seemed to have worked--thanks a lot everyone!
