    Hello,

    I am currently using sidebar/content/sidebar option on the Jane theme on my blog: http://in-my-backyard.net and would like to get the sidebars the same size.

    I am looking at around 250px for the sidebars, with the remainder as content. I can sort of get the secondary sidebar the right size, but am having problems with the content and primary sidebar (I don't get the maths???)

    Is it also to make the whole sidebar/content/sidebar wider altogether ie increase its overall size and give more width to the content?

    thanks

    stephanie

    .content-sidebar-sidebar .content, .sidebar-content-sidebar .content, .sidebar-sidebar-content .content {
        width: 640px;
    }
    
    .sidebar-content-sidebar .sidebar-primary{
        float: right;
        width: 250px;

    Hi Genwrock.

    This sort of worked - worked for the primary sidebar, but then pushed the secondary back to its old size.. I have done something to get it work - whether or not it is right is another thing 😛

    thanks
