Blog inquiries, 2 main problems Options

[Luv2Smoove]

First thing...
the width of my blog isn't as wide as I want it to be. I've asked for help twice already and no one has been able to help. I've changed the pixels, I've tried modifying the screen resolution, I'm really all out of ideas. I've tried taking out codes and putting them back in...I've had people look at my coding and I'm just hoping someone out there would be able to help me I've tried everything it seems There has to be a way!

I wanted the text in my blog area to "fit" so to speak in the dotted box that it's in. When I look at it, it's always indented. I had the width at 100% and then I even tried 450px and nothing worked. Yet thru mozilla firefox, it looks just like I want it to. But I use internet explorer and I was told it should look the same thru both.

Second thing...
When I click to view my comments, there are these white spaces that show up in the comment area. Very bizarre indeed.

Ooh, I love your name. =]
That only edits the words that are being bolded, italicized or underlined. That has nothing to do with the blog.
If you want to get rid of the space then put this in your HTML header: (You have to change the #px.

CODE

<style type="text/css">
.blogbody td{
/* entry margins */
padding-left: #px;
padding-right: #px;
</style>

i saw this in another post, maybe that will help you cuz i notice you posted twice before on the same topic. goodluck
