A relative newbie here... I am building a theme using the default theme as a start. I haven't done anything too extravagent, but have noticed that the value for the block width ($block_percent) is not being picked up for any modules docked to the right. When I view source I see:
<td class="type3" valign="top" width="%"><!-- Entering themepollbox -->
Any suggestions where I might look?
Ps. I'm using v8.2
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
hmm, do you have Calendar running on the right block with the month tables showing?
I had a problem myself on the left block when calendar was activated with the month view activated I could not decrease the percentage. However, I get the impression the right block only gets bigger in proportion to its widest contents, Is it increasing slightly as you increase the percentage or the contents?
I am not a coder, but I will look into this myself..

Sorry I now realize I posted this thread in the wrong forum and there doesn't seem to be any way to delete it.
I feel like such a dummy!!

I did find the fix for this and posted it on the themes forum (I think). I wish all these forums were in one place :(
It was something like this
added:
$res = mysql_query("select block_percent from ".$table_prefix."flags");
list($block_percent) = mysql_fetch_row($res);
above:
$col_begin = "</td><td class=\"type3\" valign=\"top\" width=\"$block_percent%\">";
in:
footer.php (to look up $block_percent and fix block width problem)
