  • You will have to increase the width of your sidebar-top.gif file, then change the width: and margin settings in your style.css

    #sidebar {
    background:url("images/sidebar-top.gif") no-repeat scroll center top #FFFFFF;
    float:left;
    line-height:180%;
    margin-left:27px;
    margin-top:-68px;
    width:238px;
    }

    thanks mate

    which file is the ( sidbar-top.gif ) in ?

    It’s just a file that’s being loaded as a background image, it’s in the directory named images.

    Look at the line background:url(“images/sidebar-top-gif”)

    #sidebar is just a <div id=”sidebar”> and it has it’s background set to display the image sidebar-top-gif.gif or sidebar-top.gif.

    The name of that image is questionable…
