That’s great – it worked. Thanks!

How do I get the text in the main column to now go all the way over to fill the now wider column? The text must be set to not go over a certain line length but I cannot locate it. ??

Resolved – the web site AND preview screen do seem to show the cached content. It can be switched off by going into Options | wp-cache and deleting cached files.

Thx all for your help.

Can’t see that’s it any of them.

I pressed the “update files” button in the admin; I even ftp’d them up afterwards to make sure.

I exited the browser and restarted it. I tried in Opera and in IE.

I have a normal Internet connection, Tiscali and am with Yahoo SmallBusinesses which includes WordPress.

There are no plug-ins active or even listed than I can see – there is one called the WordPress database backup – but that is not even active.

To be honest I have had nothing but problems with WordPress, despite the (usually) nice interface there is a lack of contextual explanations as if it is assumed you know about it all already. The number of questions being posted on these forums would perhaps lessen if things were explained better, but then anyone who has ever read a computer manual will know that techies are not the best at that sort of thing ??

Thanks. Alas, neither of those methods work. The file is the default theme index.php and single.php file (I am told it needs to go into both of those).

The banner remains seemingly aligned left (as text is in a blog) and not centered under the banner.

The “view site” feature never showed the updated version until about 5 minutes after I had made the changes – still, not sure about my code placement above so if anyone has some advice please suggest. If there is no response in the next day or two this can be put aside as resolved.
