It is a free theme called COD2Nation and can be seen here.

Look at the bottom and you can see the issue. This probably has something to do with spacers, but I am unsure.

footer.php
<?php
#### Generated by Html to PHP converter By Disipal Site (www.disipal.net) ####


echo"<div align=\"center\">"
  . "   <table cellSpacing=\"0\" cellPadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" id=\"table2\">"
  . "      <tr>"
  . "         <td><a href=\"http://www.thethemes.cc/\">"
  . "         <img height=\"48\" src=\"themes/COD2Nation/images/logoback.jpg\" width=\"100%\" border=\"0\"></a></td>"
  . "      </tr>"
  . "   </table>"
  . "</div>"
."";

?>


theme.php

/************************************************************/
/* Function themefooter()                                   */
/************************************************************/

function themefooter() {
    global $index, $banners;

    if ($index == 1) {
   echo "</td>\n"
       ."<td width=\"160\" valign=\"top\" bgcolor=#474948>\n";
   blocks(right);
    }
    echo "</td>\n"
        ."<TD WIDTH=\"11\" HEIGHT=\"100%\" valign=top background=\"themes/COD2Nation/images/rt.jpg\"><IMG SRC=\"themes/COD2Nation/images/spacer.gif\" WIDTH=\"42\" HEIGHT=\"1\"></TD>\n"
       ."</tr>\n"
       ."</table>\n";
     include("themes/COD2Nation/footer.php");
   echo "<table width=\"100%\" align=center cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n"
      ."<tr valign=\"top\">\n"
        ."<TD WIDTH=\"11\" HEIGHT=\"100%\" valign=top background=\"themes/COD2Nation/images/lt.gif\"><IMG SRC=\"themes/COD2Nation/images/spacer.gif\" WIDTH=\"42\" HEIGHT=\"1\"></TD>\n"
       ."</table>\n";
   
}


Thanks

Have you tried making your center blocks smaller? It looks to me that the center blocks are too wide causing you to have to scroll side to side thus stretching your theme (except for the footer).

Actually, if I might jump in here (Sorry Recoil), the problem lies in the fact that the bottom of the footer is one image. The body of the theme is set to fill 100% of the width of the screen but the footer can't expand to 100%. The width of the footer image is 1241 pixels. At resolutions smaller than that, you'll get a horizontal scrollbar. At resolutions higher than that (I use 1280 x 1024) the body expands farther than the footer image.

It may look like the theme isn't expanding full width, but it is. The right and left images make it look like it stops just short of full width.

BTW, Steve, that's what you get for getting a theme from someone besides me! icon_razz.gif

I knew you could answer this. icon_biggrin.gif

But how can I fix it? I don't have the $$ to afford getting a proffesional one done or I would have contacted you.

Can I somehow add a background image to each side and let it scale?

LOL, Steve, I'm just razzing you bud.

If you want it to expand to full width, you'll need to cut up the image into pieces and put them in a table.

If you can't do it, send me a pm and i'll do it for you.
