I’m just thinking out loud, forgive me if I’m speaking stupid things. Could it be possible to make it as if it was a sidebar, only it doesn’t show anything but the banner so than when the page resizes, the non visible bar is also resizing including the banner?

ok, I think I used the wrong example here because the banner in the example streches out, and now mine does also but then it disappears behind the blog.

Want I really want is that the banner is always next to the blog, even when resizing.

When I ommit the fixed positon statement, the header is placed lower. I don’t know how to fix this.

fixed this with replacing fixed by absolute.

Have only the second problem left

Hi Voodoo,

Thank you very much for your respond. The code you gave me does indeed place the content on the outside. I still have two problems that occur.

When I ommit the fixed positon statement, the header is placed lower. I don’t know how to fix this.

The second, when zoom is used to increase or decrease the size, the banner doesn’t adjust with it. At another site I saw that it can be done. See the banner on the right top. Is there a solution for this also?

I did indeed use a child theme. Thanks for the tip.

kind regards

forgot my site

Thank you mc_nate! Works like a charm.

Same problem here. I use twenty eleven.

Content CSS Selector: #content
Post CSS Selector: #content div.post
Navigation Links CSS Selector: div.navigation
Previous posts CSS Selector: div.navigation a:first

This is my site.
regards

Yessss!!!1 Thank you, you,re my hero!
the only thing I have to do now is to find a fix for the mailchimp plugin, it doesn’t work wel with a biger sidebar.

Oh, I forget. This is my site.

Hi,
my solution from yesterday didn’t work out.Today I tried some other things and I managed to increase the width sidebar and decreas the width of the part where the posts are with this code.

#primary {
float: left;
margin-bottom: 0;
margin-left: 0;
margin-right: -26.4%;
margin-top: 0;
width: 90%;
}

#secondary {
float: right;
margin-right: 12.6%;
width: 44.8%;
}

The sidebar should now be big enough to display two columns with ads, but it only shows one. I guess there is a setting I missed but I just can’t figure out which one.

Could one of you guru’s pleas help me out with this last obstacle? TIA.

ok, almost there.

I used these settings now

#branding hgroup {
margin: 0;
}

#page {
margin: 2em auto;
max-width: 1260px;
}

#primary {
float: left;
margin: 0 -32.4% 0 0;
width: 100%;
}
#content {
margin: 0 32% 0 4%;
width: 62.4%;
}
#secondary {
float: right;
width: 24.8%;
}
#supplementary {
border-top: 1px solid #ddd;
padding: 1.625em 4%;
overflow: hidden;
}

there is one thing left. On the right side there is a lot of white space near the sidebar. How can I make this smaller?

The mailchimp problem is one i’ll look in to later.

regards

Ok, update. I changed the max width to 1050 px. That doesn’t give problems with the mailchimp widget.

But now. My main goal was to have two column with banners, 125×125. If I look at my sidebanner I would think there would be enough space. If I calculate my settings I come to this.

#secondary {
float: right;
margin-right: 7.6%;
width: 18.8%;

So that would be 18.8% of 1050 = 197. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
I need about 260 I think. How do I increase this.

I tried this:
#content {
margin: 0 34% 0 7.6%;
width: 58.4%; -10
}
#secondary {
float: right;
margin-right: 7.6%;
width: 18.8%; +10

but that doesn’t work. I’m a little lost but something tells me I’m close.
}

I spoke to soon. page was cached. same problem here.

Ok, I see now the error only occurs in Firefox. IE has no problem. I don’t think that this I’ll be able to fix this at my end, don’t you think so? I’m going to try the solution you gave me.

Yes it is. https://www.switi-sranan.com
