Right Shared Border Floating Problem

D

on www.steelheaduniversity.com I have a top, left and right shared border. I
want the right SB to stay next to the content in the middle of the page.
However, the right SB floats, hugging the right side of my browser. If I make
my browser narrower it pushes the right SB to the left. How do I keep the
right SB to the left all the time regardless of the width of the browser?

Make your right shared border page a left aligned table

The only options for float for the table in the right shared border
are:Default, Right, Left. There isn't an option to disable. Even when there
is no table in the shared border it automaticly "right justifies" with the
width of the browser window.

Correct, set to default and just use the Alignment setting. However a right shared border will
always be aligned to the right side of the browser window.

So I should set the table properties in the shared border to:
Alignment=Default, and Float=Default? If the right SB always floats to the
right of the browser window then there is nothing I can do to make it "stick"
next to the content on the page. Right? I'm fighting a loosing battle and
should forget about it. Right?

Yes, and yes.

Consider using the FP Include Page component and table to structure your page layout, then you can
eliminate this issue.
