Hello,
I have been working on a Joomla site and have not taken a CSS programming course yet in school, the site I am working on has a huge space gap within the pages and I got a answer as to what it could be but it was not really a detailed answer so I have no clue on how to fix the code or start at, maybe someone can please help that has more code knowledge then me?
here is what I was told that needs to be fixed, it seems to be a template error with a new extention that was installed
"CSS in your template is the issue. I suggest to set "float: left;" for div#content_outleft"
I looked threw the code and do not see a div#content_outleft in there.. here is the code
@charset "utf-8";
#left_border {
float:left;
width: 100%;
text-align: left;
background-repeat: repeat-y;
