Hi all,

Im going to use the news module as my homepage. I have configured the module to show the articles in 2 columns, the thing is that both columns has exactly the same width, and i would like something like 60%-40% instead of 50%-50%.

How could I change it??, I was loooking in the module templates, but i dont know where should i change it. Should I use CSS??

Cheers,
Figu

Im starting with all these things, so im not an expert about code, could someone guide me??.

Obviously The width of the colums should only apply to the News module.

Thanks in advance,
Figu.

The bold code by qcorek is the key. You could set cell width if you could detect the first column, the second...

If you could set a "column counter".

And you can.

check "counter" in the Smarty manual. You'll get how to set a counter and use it in your template.
