Hi all,

I`m running Coppermine on my site, with the Theme Chaotic Soul (which I altered to fit my needs)

There is one thing I would like to change about this theme; the menu bar is on the right, I want it to be on te left.

If tried changing this in de style.css sheet by changing in the following code. If I do this, the menu goes to the left, but on the right side, I still see the lines on the left from where the sidebar used to be. Appearantly this is not the way to move the menu from right to left, so how should I do it?


#content, #sidebar {
border-left: 1px solid #363430;
border-right: 1px solid #363430;
padding: 0 10px;
}

#content { float: right; font-size: 1.1em; width: 617px; }
#content h2 { margin: 0 0 10px; }
#content p { line-height: 1.5em; }

#sidebar { border-left: 0; float: left; width: 200px; }
#sidebar h3 { color: #bd934f; margin: 15px 0 5px; font-variant: small-caps; font-size: 1.1em; }
#sidebar ul { margin: 0 0 10px; padding: 0; border-top: 1px solid #363430; border-bottom: 1px solid #363430; }
#sidebar li { display: block; padding: 4px 10px; font-family: Trebuchet MS, Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica; font-size: 9px; text-transform: uppercase; background: #22201d; margin: 1px 0; }
#sidebar li:hover { background: #363430; }

Sorry, the link to the gallery is www.richards-fotos.nl

When trying to attach my theme.php file, it says it`s not allowed? How can I do that?


EndlessQuest

Didn`t check the faq`s. Changed the extension to .txt see attachment.  :-[

oops I moved it to the right as the one you uploaded showed it on the left for me. Which one of us is backwards here?
Did you only need that extra border line removed?

If my last post is the case just add background-size: 1160px 4px; to #wrapper

Hi Jeff, I just want the menu bar to be on the left and keep the rest of the layout exactly the way it is now.

Jeff Bailey

Then stick with your custom theme without my changes and then add what I said in my last post.

I discovered that on Internet Explorer 8 the line is still there. In google chrome and Firefox it`s okay.

Is there something we can do to remove the lin in Explorer 8 as well?

Jeff Bailey

I don't have a copy of IE8 to test on but you can always just edit the image to the correct size instead of using css.
