"echo $screen" and "echo $size" (solved) - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

hello all,

can tell me meaning of "" , "" php commands?

i'm trying upgrade "madeyourweb" template main body content stretched on pagewidth when both left , right column empty. in way, excluding side modules, 1 can present mainbody content stretched on screen. characteristic great when presenting forums example.
i've managed change relevant index.php section got stuck dimensions.

thx, kd

the output value of $screen variable.

you can program template collapse left/right columns when empty it's hassle manage module assignments not show when forum or gallery or whatever being displayed.

the better way code template doesn't load left/right columns when forum displayed regardless if have modules in them.

before tag

# initialize variable ##########
$use_columns = 1;

# collapse left & right columns if in forum ##########
if ( $_request['option'] == 'com_joomlaboard' ) {
$use_columns = 0;
}


modify template:

if (moscountmodules( "left" )) {
mosloadmodules ( 'left',-3);
}
?>

you'll need duplicate stylesheet , modify width of main section. include conditional statement like:

# initialize variable ##########
$use_columns = 1;

# collapse left & right columns if in forum ##########
if ( $_request['option'] == 'com_joomlaboard' ) {
$use_columns = 0;
}






} else {
