    • Hi David,
      Thanks very much for your post & file above. It works well, and expanding the width of columns to 80 solved my clients request for larger/wider images. On a large monitor anyway.

      However, when I view the site on a tablet/ipad, the website width does not scale down, it simply chops the website. I cannot even scroll/swipe sideways to see the rhs of the screen.

      Can you suggest a fix for this at all?
      Can I change the set pixel widths per column to percentages instead? If so, which files/variables to edit?

      I'm running the Visage template on J2.5 with Gantry (and am butchering the template according to subsequent client change requests). Under the Admin Template settings tab, I have the following settings:
      iphone/android custom theme = off
      scalable content = on (whether on/off doesn't change anything).
      images resize: 80, 25%
      the rest of settings as standard.

      The client has a large monitor and wants images to fill more of the screen than the standard design for 1024 width monitors. As monitors are getting larger, this isn't a totally unreasonable request, and I'd like to be able to apply this to future joomla websites.

      Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions which you can provide!!

      Thanks for your quick reply!

      I've added this code to my template.css file.

      I've also used the updated version of mywidth.php as you suggested. from here:
      www.rockettheme.com/forum/index.php?f=39...ic&start=165#p806468

      It extends the width of the template on a PC but the website is still getting chopped when displayed on an ipad. Any other ideas what may be causing this? Thanks in advance for your help :)

    • Because your are using the updated version you need to remove

      body {
      min-width: 1050px !important;
      }

      from your css;

      or at least change it to 1200px. Only logical that 1050px !important wont work when you make the template 1200px.

      Also you said 1024 now you have 1200 ... please be a bit more precise in the future.
      I think I will close this thread soon as it is getting confusing over the pages.
