Recommendation for non-fixed width theme

[FCazabon]

Hi Can anybody recommend a nice simple non-fixed width scheme?  Most (if not all) the themes I've tried out before seem to set a fixed width (even this forum has a fixed width) whereas I would like my pages to exapand/contract according to the width of the browser.

Thanks for any suggestions

My suggestion is to build your own. Using YAML will give you a good head start (and a bullet-proof CSS layout to work with). Handily, someone has already ported the framework to CMSMS for you:

Then hop over to:

http://yaml.de

Have a read of the documentation and then try the Yaml Builder to modify the base layouts and design as you like.

One word of warning with full-width layouts; watch out for lines becoming too long to be readable. Fixed width for human-read content is popular for a reason.

The default templates coming with a CMSMS install, dont have fixed widths.... They do have a min-max, which can be easily modified...

Thanks Deak, I'll check out your suggestions.

Ronny, can changing the min/max values be changed on the fly when someone changes the size of their browser window?  Can you point me to where these values are set so I can play around with them?  Thanks

layout stylesheet..... + in the template for old IE-versions....
