Setting 'descriptions' width for listings - (Resolved)

[Neticus]

Hello,

How do i minimize how far link descriptions horizontally go on a page?

The default right now is descriptions go to the end of the page then break onto the next line - go to the end of page again and so on.

e.g.
jobs.com
As one of the busiest job sites, blah blah blah jobs.com carries an average of 60000 jobs from all major disciplines and industry sectorssssss across the US.

Instead of it going to the end of the page i want to set the width of where it should continue onto a new line. Like

jobs.com
As one of the busiest job sites, blah blah blah jobs.com
carries an average of 60000 jobs from all major disciplines
and industry sectors across the US.


Thanks in advance
Neticus.

I have the same issue and would like to know...but I'm using the tableless template by vkaryl. It has to be a line in the main.css...but figuring out what operates what is quite a chore.

Yeh im using default template tried editing something that looked close to .pr but that didn't work. I may be wrong but I think .pr stands for 'page rank'. Theres a bit in default main.css (#descr) tried adding 'Width: 600px' to that but nothing happened.

Does anbody know the correct css field that allows me to adress the subject of this post???

Limiting description width for listings. Im no coder but i've finally figured out how to do this. There may be an easier 'better' way to do this but this way worked fine for me.

Place this code in your main.css file

Expand the 'width' as you wish.


Open links.tpl find the code

Change To

There you go. No more description text running riot. :)
