I am having this issue in IE 7/8 and it's keeping me from going live with a new site. I hate to think all my work tweaking this Artisteer skin is going to go out the window and I have to find some other tool!

Frustrated...

FYI,

I resolved this by creating a copy of my page.ascx file and removing the following:

<div class="art-layout-cell art-sidebar1"> <div id="sidebar1" visible="false" runat="server"></div> <div class="cleared"></div> 


I called this page_nsb.ascx and use this skin on any pages where I don't want the sidebar. Note that you also have to create a copy of page.doctype.xml and page.ascx.resx in the app_localresources folder. Use matching names for these files.

I discovered that the problem was due to Artisteer mixing tables with in div tags to create their layouts. Although the div portion was designed to be fluid, I discovered (using firebug) that there is a table that controls the 3 col layout. A style assigned in the skin.css file to the controlling tag had the following property: table-layout: fixed; Changing the property value “auto” partially fixed the problem. The content pane’s width now adjusted correctly, but I could never get the two sidebar panes to be equal widths. Frustrating!

Yesterday, I just discovered and upgraded Artisteer 3.1 to the latest version of 3.1 that came out 1/31/2012, which was released to fix some Joomla and other minor issues. I opened the skin, made a few tweaks, and uploaded it to my dnn site. The fluid pane feature is now working correctly, and in all four major browsers, as well as the awful browser built into my android phone.

Problem resolved, at lest for me anyway.

>>When I only have a module in the “Content Pane”, nothing in the left or right panes, the content pane is not expanding to the full width of the page

Your skin is setup using hard column widths vs fluid widths.
Re-do the skin and empty out any hard pixel widths.
