I wasn't sure where to put this and I hope it was ok to put it here.

My site has had this problem for a long time and I cant fix it. I built the header based on 100% and have also tried 900 pixels and even many more adjustments. Now on a 17 inch monitor everything looks perfect until you make the screen smaller etc. The header just will not stay lined up on the right hand side.

This is easily noticed on other sized monitors and looks real bad as you see it inserted here:



If I was not suppose to insert the web page here and it gets deleted (I understand) persons can take a look at it at: [ Register or login to view links on this board. ]

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me fix this!

Well...to put it bluntly, the problem is that the person who designed the theme didn't know how (or was too lazy) to code the theme themselves. They simply sliced the image (badly) and let Image Ready create the HTML code.

Image Ready is notorious for spitting out garbage code and people who don't know any better will just use it as it is. Tsk tsk.

The header in this particular theme includes a zillion unnecessary table cells, rowspans, colspans and spacer.gifs. To give you a better idea of what I'm talking about, I took some screenshots of both the header and footer of the theme.

The red boxes are outlines of each table cell.

The bad news is that to fix your problem, you're probably gonna have to recode the header (maybe the footer too) to get rid of all the junk code.
