Need help with this template (html) I only want One sidebar

bonnie0225 · #1 (**permalink**) 03-25-2008, 09:30 AM

The HTML layout code below has two sidebars or columns but I only want one sidebar or one column. How do I delete one sidebar or column? Also take into consideration the width of the sidebar or column that will remain:
