css: % or px

Hello,

In minibb2.0, you choose te fix the forum width with the number of pixels (px). In fact it is 770px. Mychoice is different. Indeed I want that the forum width is adapted to the screeen width so The larger is set with %.
I found one problem is the css that concerns the last discussion cells (class tbtransparent ).
With that code, I have that:

.tbTransparent{
width: 95%;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
background: transparent;
font-size: 11px;
line-height: 15px;
}



And with this code, I have that:

.tbTransparent{
width:770px;
font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
background: transparent;
font-size: 11px;
line-height: 15px;
}



The html code is exactly the same. Use "<nobr>" is a solution that I found but it is not HTML valid. So it is a css problem but I don't find the solution.
Is anybody has an idea ?

I think, this is not CSS problem, but editing some language files variables this way will help:

$l_sortBy='Sort&nbsp;by:';
$l_newAnswers='Latest&nbsp;posts';
$l_newTopics='New&nbsp;topics';

$l_sortedBy='Sorted&nbsp;by:';

Another words, insert &nbsp; (non-breakable space) instead of ' ' and you are here...

Wouhh !
Thanks a lot ! It works.
Definitively, I don't like this kind of problem with special charactere like &nbsp; ... :p

I agree, it's not the best solution, but I really don't know why browser interprets 50% cells this way.
