Width of sidebars

[feline]

For more flexibility of your own sidebar scripts, you can check/get the width of this ...

open TPortalBlocks.template.php and search for

Code Select Expand


// TPortal side bar, left or right.
function TPortal_sidebar($side)
{
   global $context , $scripturl, $settings;


add after:

Code Select Expand


   if ($side == 'right' || $side == 'left')
      $context['TPortal']['sidebar_width'] = $context['TPortal'][$side .'bar_width'];


now you can check the current width in each sidebar by
$context['TPortal']['sidebar_width']

Would you happen to know how to lock the size of the side bars.  Currently the only reason I have for doing this is because of pictures on the right hand bar.  I want them no wider than 170, but I want it to resize the rest of the picture to proportion it.

I cuurently have scripts doing the random pics but the one I want doesn't resize automatically.  One script does, but it has some other things I'm working with on it.  Whatever one works first is the one I will stay width(pun inserted before this).LOL. Ok, not that funny, but it was before I typed this sentence.

Anyway, question is after all the babling:
question: How can I lock the size of the side bars?
question: Since the scripts I'm using are php is there a standard command I can add to do this?

Your help is greatly appreciated.
