Chops,

Thanks for the quick responses to my posts. The site is pretty much structurally finished now, bar for one glitch.

The mini calendar refuses to stay within the bounds of the menu column and I can't find what's messing it up.

I've tweaked the .calday settings but it doesn't seem to change the width correctly, can you take a look and let me know where I've done wrong?

Cheers

The following would be the easiest fix, imo:

.menucalendar {
width:150px !important
}

Or set the width to whatever you want it to be (usually .calday * 7)

Once again I'm in your debt Chops!

Can I ask if there is a full list of all the possible Classes and IDs that can be safely changed by users? I know that there's a list of classes at http://www.dkpsystem.com/guide.php?t=CompleteCSS , but some of the ones you've helped me with aren't listed there at all.

There's not currently a list of all the classes in use on the site.

What I recommend doing for tweaking things is using the Firefox extension called "FireBug". It's unmatched for discovering things about the page format (for example, you can hover over any object on the page and it'll tell you not only the CSS that's powering that object, but the entire heirarchy that leads to it). The heirarchy is useful in cases where there isn't a clearly identified CSS class for a particular object, but that that object but you can use it for setting up rules for those objects at fit that mold.

For example, if you wanted tables in forum posts to have particular properties, you could reference them with

.PostText table {
...rules for tables...
}

It especially helps for formatting ajax and DHTML objects that otherwise don't appear in the page, but are dynamically generated. This allows you to focus on working, rather than constantly looking up a list of CSS elements. Just hover over the item and you know what to change.
