How do I increase the width of the website? It appears to be 800 pixels and I would like it to be closer to 950 pixels wide.

Just go to Page Layout, look at your "View Panel Illustration" which wil tell you your individual section's width. Once you have that, decide how and where you wish to add the extra pixels. Then go to that section and change the width settings. Hope this helps.

It might not be that easy. If you are using one of XSitePro's default templates, the images will be sized to fit the 800px width. You'll need to replace the current images or widen them. That may or may not prove difficult, depending on the image.

Thank you. I added the header in the 960 width. I'm using a full width page with no side panels so changed the width of the main panel to 960 pixels. I think that is going to work. I also added the colored border per the tip sent out by email. What is the code to make the border have curved edges at the corners of the webpage?

Making curved corners is normally done with rounded corners images. It can be done with CSS, but it won't work in Internet Explorer without changing the DOCTYPE and that's not recommended.

Thank you. I think I'll just leave the corners square.
