Question about templates, sizing, etc...

tsturm · 15.04.2004, 22:30

Ok, so this is not my forte... I have a family site, and I recently uploaded RSGallery 2.0 beta 5 and I'm using Matt Smith's Mambo Spring template.

My problem is this:

On any pages with RS gallery, the center portion of the screen reduces to the witdh of RSgallery, and draws the right column WAY too wide. I included a partial screen shot... any tips would be appreciated.

That's because of the error, not the template. Fix the source of the error and your template will work normally

Your php error reporting is set too high. Those are just notices. Check out php.net manual on error reporting. There are a few ways to set this.

The second one looks like there is something missing from the language file, the first one is an undefined variable, which is not necessarily a big deal.

For quick fix, you can set the following in /configuration.php :

PHP Code:

  $mosConfig_error_reporting = 0;

OK... tried all suggestions, and it did not work. The funny thing is this: On any other content page, the middle section will resize and the left and right module sections will stay fixed to the widest module, with different size browser windows open. On the rsgallery content though, the main section becomes fixed-width. ARGH! To top it all off, One of the power connectors to one of my raid drives at home is failing intermtittantly and the internet is messed up at work, so I'm having a lot of difficulty these last couple days even trying to work on it.

Thanks guys, for your help so far.

Geezz... sounds like you're having quite a lot to take at the moment.

Ok.. for the error_reporting, what about value -1, 1 and 0. Try them all to see which one swtiches the error off at the moment.

Hope everything will sort out for you.

Tried that... I went to check the mod_pms.php directly here are line 62 through 70... I know nothing about syntax or coding, but I was wondering if the first open quote was what it had a problem with. MyPMS and events calander display correctly on all other pages.

Quote:

Notice: Undefined variable: content in /home/user1/public_html/modules/mod_pms.php on line 62

PHP Code:

  $content.='<table width="100%" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" align="center"><tr>';

$content.='

<td align="center" bgcolor="black" colspan="2">

<font color="white">

You have

</font>

</td>';

$content.='</tr><tr>';

$content.= '<td align="center" bgcolor="black" width="30%"><font color="orange" size="6">'.$howmany.'</font></td>';

And lines 31-37 of mod_events_cal.php

Quote:

Notice: Use of undefined constant _CAL_CONF_STYLE - assumed '_CAL_CONF_STYLE' in /home/user1/public_html/modules/mod_events_cal.php on line 31

PHP Code:

  $content=_CAL_CONF_STYLE;

 
 
//////////////////////////////////////

$cal_year=date("Y",mktime());

$cal_month=date("m",mktime());

$cal_day=date("d",mktime());

Should I fix the width of these two modules? I would much rather that the main content section was not fixed around rsgallery. I'm not sure how this is done, but if it's possible I'd like:

width_content_main = width_total - (width_left + width_right)

instead of what it's doing right now, which seems to be:

width_right = width_total - (width_left + width_content_main)

Internet is finally up at work, but I'm looking at getting a new PS for my computer at home...

Too much fun for one week.

Thanks again.

I'm having an issue with Mambo Spring also. The template looks fine, it just displays "charset=iso-8859-1" at the top left corner. What's causing that?

Thanks!

Ahh... that ..

Make sure that your ISO is properly set in the meta tag like the following:

PHP Code:

 
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; <?php echo _ISO; ?>" />

HTH.

I didn't really understand that and kinda destroyed my template so I just switched to a different template.
