Realy N00b question about the side bar

[rmokkenstorm]

Hello there,

I'm creating a website for a band called TAURUS.
However i want something prety simple but i don't know how.
This is what i want:



And this is what i've got
www.tauruswebsite.com

This is my template:

Code: Select all

   {* Start Content (Navigation and Content columns) *}
   <div id="content">



      {* Start Sidebar *}
      <div id="sidebar" class="hascontent">
 

    <!-- Start Right Sidebar  -->
     <div id="rightsidebar" align='center'>
     <hr class="accessibility" />
     </div> 
     <!-- End Right Sidebar  -->


     {* Start News *}
      <div id="news">
         <h2>News</h2>
          {news number='4' detailpage='news'}
      </div>
      {* End News *}

         {*{content block='Sidebar'}*}

      </div>
      {* End Sidebar *}

and this my stylesheet

Code: Select all

ndiv#content {
   margin: 0em auto 0em 0; /* some air above and under menu and content */
}


div#rightsidebar {
   float: right;
   margin-left: 3px;
   margin-right: 3px;
   margin-bottom: 5px;
   width: 160px;
   padding: 0px;
}


div#main {

Rob,

What do you mean by filling with data?

[rmokkenstorm]

the Field Static Gig Overview i want to put a mini calender or something. maybe some plain text..
but this field should stay there whole the time no matter what page in my site is selected.
and as you see my template and CSS looks correct. (Found it somewhere on the forum)
But i don't know where/how i fill up this ""  with something.

Nobody?

You could us a global content block with the information you want to keep on each page.

Content » Global Content Blocks

Add your new Global Content Block and name it whatever you want, ie calendar

Then add any info you want to this and save. Then add the tag {global_content name='Name of Global Content Block'} to your template(s). Doing it this way will mean you only have to edit one file to update this content on all pages that call on this global content block. An example of this is teh way the footer is handled in the default templates:

  {* Start Footer. Edit the footer in the Global Content Block called "footer" *}
 
      {global_content name='footer'}
   
  {* End Footer  *}

I hope I explained this right.

Let me know if it is of any help.
