Hi

I have this code to displat the news in homepage

Code:

<div >
<!-- BEGIN news_block -->
<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td> {GROUP_IMAGE}</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td><strong>{TITLE} {POSTED_WHEN}</strong></td>
</tr>
<!-- BEGIN readmore_link_block -->
<tr>
<td>{CONTENT_SHORT}</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href="{LINK}">{TXT_READMORE}</a></td>
</tr>
<!-- END readmore_link_block -->
<!-- END news_block -->
</table>
</div>

Display the nes in 1 column

But i want i 2 columns, it´s possible ?

Thanks

First of all I made your code a bit more readable by using the Code tag "#" Icon that this forum provides. Then, please have a look at anynews which supports templates. In those templates you can "design" the required output.

With a table layout you cannot fill 2 columns dynamically. You need to use floating DIV's. This should work (not tested):

Code:

<div>
  <!-- BEGIN news_block -->
  <div>
    <div>{GROUP_IMAGE}</div>
    <div><strong>{TITLE} {POSTED_WHEN}</strong></div>
  
    <!-- BEGIN readmore_link_block -->
    <div style="width:50%;float:left;">
      <div>{CONTENT_SHORT}</div>
      <div><a href="{LINK}">{TXT_READMORE}</a></div>
    </div>
    <!-- END readmore_link_block -->
  
    <!-- END news_block -->
  </div>
</div>

Of course it's better to style the DIV's in the stylesheet, instead of inline like here. You will also want to layout them, because now the columns are right next to each other. So you need to apply margins, and maybe background colors, borders, etc. to make it look nice.
