Need some help on my website

I found a template to use to make it better than what I had and I pretty much have it the way I want for now except for one section.

On the news section, I want what I type to go all the way across the tan area instead of it doing a break in the middle. I can't figure out how to fix that.

The original template had another table to the right of the news section so i think thats whats causing it but my html is pretty rusty.

if you can tell me what to do I would appreciate it.

The problem is this in your CSS file:


.newsboxtable {
padding-right: 10px;
padding-left: 25px;
padding-top: 10px;
vertical-align: top;
text-align: left;
width: 230px;

It's setting the table width to 230 pixels, you need to make that larger to accomodate your text.
 
thank you.
it was a template that i edited and i don't know css at all. how were you able to see the css coding?

edit: nm, i figured out how you saw it.

CSS isn't hard. I discovered that recently.
 
Oh and 700px for the width may be too much...I'd have to look more at the layout to determine but if the text goes too far that's the problem 😛

well i did some testing and it works ok with 700. i think maybe because i set left and right padding to 25px? if thats not it, i;m not sure why then because i put in a lot of text and it works ok.

Well it's probably inside another table then or otherwise restricted. Long as it works 😉
