Side scroll problem

I use PHPnuke and somepeople are complaining of a large amount of side scroll.

I've added cell spacing and padding to my tables but there is still a large amount of scroll.

What could I be doing wrong?

Your first problem I think is the cellspacing being set so high and the second problem is those pixel.gif's you have that are putting some horizontal space in between your tables. Getting rid of those two things makes a big difference. The other problem is that big image in the middle - it still needs to be smaller (just resize it in your graphics program and link it to a bigger version).

What is PHPnuke by the way?

phpnuke.org

It's a news posting template script that generates the layout of the pages.

Pretty nifty, but it does everything for you.

Having zero creativity and skill a script of this type helps a lot. Smiling

Okay, so it's like blogger.com only it doesn't have as much flexibility in terms of design, and it's not remotely hosted but it does seem to have more flexibility and expandability. PHPnuke seems to be more suited for creating a whole site rather than parts of one. Is this right?
