Problem displaying article on right side using {RIGHT}

I am trying to use the {RIGHT} tag but with only limited success.

In my template, my right section contains a {RIGHT} tag. And I have an article with some simple text. In the display drop down list for the article, I selected "right (RIGHT)".

But when the page displays, the article that I want to have displayed on the right is shown in the middle section below the first article. When I click on the more link, the summary is displayed in the middle, by itself without the first article, and the body of the article is displayed over on the right.

I don't see how to get the body of the article to display on the right side, not in the middle, when the page first loads.

Can you tell me what I am missing?

Thanks again very much,

Doug

I don't need to make this happen now after all. My customer is happy to just have a simpler page, instead of needing a right-side column.

Hi

it's working for me - don't know where the Problem by your side is - it seems that you do everything right :?:

The only difference is maybe that I use not Table-Layout, I use CSS-DIV Layout.

See my short description here

http://www.hdk-online.de/howto.phtml

for the additonal Content named INFOBLOCK I have appended the CSS with this:

Code: Select all

.infoBlock { 
  position: absolute;
  top: 240px;
  bottom: 0px;
  right: 0;
  width: 141px;
  z-index: 15;
  background-color: #FFFFFF;
  overflow: auto;
}
.infoBlock [id]{
  height: expression((document.body.clientHeight-112) + "px");
}
my rigth-Section in Template looks like that:

Code: Select all

<!-- rechts //-->

<table width="144px" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">
 <tr>
    <td valign="top"><div align="center">
      <p>&nbsp;</p>
      <p><img src="/picture/90px.jpg" alt="Logo"></p>
</div> </td>
</tr>
</table>
{INFOBLOCK}
and the Section INFOBLOCK has this Content:

Code: Select all

<!-- infoBlock //-->
<div class="infoBlock">
 {INFOBLOCK}
</div>
see it working here - the FESPA-Logo is in INFOBLOCK and only on the Indexpage visible, cause it is only on this Page in the Article/Content

Pepe solved this already by including the {RIGHT} Tag in the section (right) of your template and you select content part right for your page. Then it should work with the DEV Version 1.2.1 :P
