Trying to override the width on trademe so I can put some other divs in the search results, using a modified version of the script that does the thumbnails - so I get shipping and seller and feedback there. Its working fine except that the page is too narrow for it.

Simple I thought, overide the stupid 1020 width of trademe with something larger and it should be fine

Everything I have read and implimented sofar doesnt actually change the width of the PageBody - they have !important on their style sheet which seems to mean that my ones I add dont happen.

I can go into the DOM editor in firebug and change the numbers and get it looking like I want, but thats not really viable.

Anyone done this in greasemonkey already so I dont have to reinvent the wheel? I guess I am going to have to directly change things on the divs themselves instead of just

I've tried it the first way on there, the latter means I will have to make a loop to find it and change it, which was what I was hoping to avoid. No big deal, will restart work on it tomorrow.

Would rather not use stylish as well as greasemonkey if possible, but will have a look at it later on.

Thanks.
