full width expanding header

[tony adams]

http://www.shebasrealm.com/forum/

the tranquility skin has a header that fills the width of the screen and adjusts to different screen resolutions

anybody know how this is done, am well impressed with it

[Floris]

A table with 3 columns, left and right use fixed width, and middle column doesn't.
The images gradient ends in white, the middle column background is white.

<table width="100%"  border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
	<td width="100" align="left">left</td>
	<td align="center">center</td>
	<td width="100" align="right">right</td>
  </tr>
</table>

thanks

had worked out the left and right bit, the middle one i thought was a background

so from there is it all called from the header HTML??

[Floris]

The header template seems the most logical.

it may be clear to you, but how do i call the 3 graphics, also that i think will only be as wide asthe forum, the one i pointed to was full screen

just think that i have little idea what you mean and you are my level

i can understand once it is explained

EDIT

have worked the grapgics out i think, just need to make a centre graphic, but still cannot see how to get it to be full witth as the one in the link

Another edit

am missing something i think, made a centre graphic and with all 3 displayed it is wider than the screen

back to my drawing board

[Floris]

set it as background to the midle table cell
it will then repeat itself unlimited.
if it goes wider, so will the appearance.

[tony adams]

can understand what you are saying and the principal, but not how to do it

as i said think - simple - then you are at my level

and to come back to the original link, that image is full width, what i have managed so far with your help has a borter on the right and left
