Freeway templates and Backdraft

Noel,

Backdraft has some environment dependencies that the template probably doesn’t have. The cause of your problem is likely due to the Box Sizing action not working correctly. That action requires that the page is actually a fixed width at each and every breakpoint for it to do it’s calculations. This is obviously a problem for a flexible website, so Backdraft uses the “Flexible Page” action to override the fixed widths and make the output flexible again. You can see some more details on how this works here: http://calebgrove.com/articles/box-sizing-and-backdraft

There is a workaround, and that is to use %-value padding (instead of pixel-value) on the columns. This circumvents the whole issue and will allow you to remove the Box Sizing action and not have to deal with that. In fact, Backdraft will probably be switching to this setup in the next release.
