Layout and Artisteer

Not sure how to work around the following..

The link below shows my problem.

http://www.castlesoft.com.au/Data/sites/1/artisteer-borders-castlesoft.png

Basically I want to have....

    CENTRE CONTENT + EMPTY RIGHT CONTENT

    CENTRE CONTENT + RIGHT CONTENT

Artister themes frame/fill the empty content.. In non artisteer themes.. I can use the empty right content as an invisible place holder.

Can I apply a custom class to the top right content only ? To stop any theme being applied ?

My (2) problem is.. How do I apply a 'Right Content' Artisteer style to a 'Centre Content' in the bottom centre panel only ?

Is this a custom class CSS ?

My final output was going to be..

Slideshow graphic (centre panel all the way across).

Product/Services panel in Centre and News Panel Right (under slideshow).

Hope its not too confusing.

Re: Layout and Artisteer

I have a partial solution to the layout problem.

To have an empty panel in a right column you can use an iFrame with a static html file.

I created a file called iFrameEmptyPanel.html which contains:

<div id="iFrameEmptyPanel" style="height: 100px;">&nbsp;</div>

Then just add a new iFrame Content to the right column with this content  and bingo.. Placement for 2nd right hand column

is ok and no framing.

 

BUT.. I still have 1 problem.

How can I apply 'RIGHT COLUMN' styling to a 'Centre column' content panel??

Any ideas ?

PS.. It would be nice to enable/disable/select the style for Left/Centre/Right columns. That way you could use

any of the 3 column formats, or nothing at all if you like.
