    Is there a reason you want to switch the panels themselves instead of just their contents? The latter is something you can do on the widgets panel. Also, if its a question of styling, just style the left one the way the right one is now, and style the right one the way the left one is now.


    Sharing the good news about the wonders of modern CSS and the split-step. Either one should get you moving fast. 😀

    Hi Marybaum. Thanks for replying.

    Yes; the eye falls nicely on the right hand side of the page which is where we want to add important information.

    Basically what I need is the left panel to be 'long' and the right panel to be 'short'.

    Hope that makes sense! 🙂

    Ok, got the answer:

    go to your Crystal's CSS file and 'swap' the width of home-top-left / home-top-right

    example:

    #home-top .home-top-left {
    background: #FFFFFF;
    width: 620px;
    height: 320px;
    float: left;
    text-shadow: #FFFFFF 1px 1px;
    border-left: 1px solid #D9DFE4;
    border-right: 1px solid #D9DFE4;
    }

    #home-top .home-top-right {
    background: #FFFFFF;
    width: 320px;
    height: 320px;
    float: right;
    border-left: 1px solid #D9DFE4;
    border-right: 1px solid #D9DFE4;
    }
