Exclamation 100% widths

Hey there

i have a nice css 1 column template, where i am using a 760px width. the inner area has got some padding.

i am integrating a shopping cart, that seems to use 100% width for tables, and i am seeing that it is pushing out of my structure (and trying to use the full 760px) - and ignoring the padding.

any idea what can be done about this (w/io manually changing all the 100% to 740px or something...)

thanks!

Re: 100% widths

Why not reduce it to 90% width or something?

Pete.

Re: 100% widths

doable, but
shouldn't the 100% be 100% of the avauilable space (ie - minus the padding)?

Re: 100% widths

It's like the box-model hack ... you need to compensate for the padding, margins and borders. So ... 100% yes if you don't have any of those. Otherwise ... something like 95%, 96%, etc...

If only CSS had a pseudo-width property...
