A friend of mine editted up an old set of Invisionfree forums I had to have a vertical scrolling text bar, as well as a single line horizontal scrolling text bar.
I'm trying to get those same scroll bars onto a new forum skin I'm working on. I've tried countless times to fix the issues I'm having on my own, but can't seem to get it right.
At first I just tried copying over the main section with the scroll bars, then once it was working edit up the colors and such to match the new skin, but the problem was, the header/body resized the whole forums page to the max width, when it needs to be specific.
This is the old Header/Body with the scroll bars:

As you can see, those forums are stretched to the max width of the page.
This is the new Header/Body with the fixed width (I believe):
<center><body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" alink="#000000" vlink="#000000"> <table cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#0C0C0C" valign="top" height="100%" width="740"><tr><td valign="top" height="100%" halign="right" background="http://70.85.240.179/3935/94/upload/p146794.gif" style="padding: 11px; border: 0px;"></td><td height="100%" valign="top"> <% BOARD HEADER %> <% NAVIGATION %> <% BOARD %><br />
Example: http://z9.invisionfr...m/Pork_N_Beans/
I thought maybe the width was in the main CSS Style Sheet, but after removing the new skin's header/body and replacing it with the old one, the width was changed. So I'm assuming that means, the width is within it somewhere.
If anyone could help I'd REALLY appreciate it, and I apologize ahead of time if this is in the wrong section.
Thanks for any replies,
