    It would have to do with the template you are using. I am guessing the template you are using is setup into 4 blocks going across. Maybe there is another block you could use instead. One that is below/above those blocks that spans the full width. It depends on what your template call the areas, maybe something like main, main top, top content, etc. Far as overall width of the page would as well be determined by the template. Some require css changes, others have a nice back end in the template administrator area that allows one to change this. In this situation it appears to be fully dependent on your template and not on MC.

    Your best bet would be to find if the maker of the template has a website or a help page and find out the module variations as well as any template specific settings. Some template makers will even show a nice layout of what ever module area looks like. Then all you need to do is find the one that is full width and choose it. If you are using a module variation that is full length, then make sure you aren't using multiple modules with that same module location, as most modules will put them all side by side.

    hi

    thanks dude for the timely reply.

    But are you sure that this is a template issue.

    For instance, take a look at these pages

    http://www.harishzone.com/groove
    http://www.harishzone.com/groove/F/1-faltu/1-faltu

    Here the width seems to be ok.

    The issue comes when I click in any of the letter bar items.

    The location of that area is "main" which is already 100% width.

    I m using the "Detailed Layout (MUSIC COLLECTION HOMPEAGE - MANDATORY!" layout.

    So everything is happening by itself as its a component. Can you tell me how can i set the location to show 100% width.

    I am totally stuck with it now. No idea how to come out of this. Please help me.

    Sorry, I am in the process of moving so I don't have my install to play around with to check, or even my computer with firefox and firebug installed on it. What would happen if you temporarily disabled the 2 right modules? The login and the polls modules. Does it still stay in just one block or does it stretch the full length?

    Ok, I snuck firebug on this system. Not sure if this is THE fix, but it does seem to make the block fully stretch.

    Looks like the div.nopad tag doesn't like the Float: left;

    When I removed it in firebug it looked correct. According to firebug, it would part of your template's css. Check in site/templates/themza_j15_14/css/template.css and try disabling or deleting the float: left; under the div.nopad Would be around line 242.

    I would recommend backing it up first before making and saving the changes as I could not say what else it might affect being it is not a template I have used before. Though a quick test on the working pages, makes it appear to have fixed those as well. Stretching the module all the way to the next block instead of having so much gap in between the two.
