I noticed that if you bypass the index.php page and instead view the forums directly via their specific URLs, you see them at 100% width.  For example, this link will let you see this thread at full width instead of being limited to a width of 982px:

Replacing the 982 fixed width with 100% width works for me.

Exactly how does one go about doing this?

You can do a temporary edit by opening the Developer Console or Tools in your web browser, finding the table definition that looks like this:

<table align="center" border="0" width="982" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

and changing the value of the width attribute from 982 to 100%.
This edit only affects the page you're currently viewing because you've edited the cached/in-memory copy of the page.  Once you navigate to another page, the cache is refreshed and the edit will be lost.

The automatic way would be to use a plugin like the Stylebot Extension for Chrome:

The Chrome Web Store page for Stylebot:

Can't figure it out.    All of the table width settings for my browser (Chrome) are already set to 100%

Stylebot wasn't helpful either

You'll all hate me but I prefer it with the side bars.

This is what I see when I view the MouseBits main page in Chrome's Developer Tools.  I've selected the table with the 982 px width.

Comparing your screenshot to mine, I noticed that I don't have a "table" tab. All I see are "html" , "body" and "div#main". If memory serves, I thought it had appeared while clicking on numerous links, but I can't seem to make it appear anymore.

Are you referring to the labels at the bottom edge of the Elements window?  Those aren't tabs that you can select, they're just labels to help you keep track of where you are.

Did you twirl open the <div id="main"> container?  The table is inside that section.
Look at the fourth line above the blue selected line in the Elements window.  That's the div container you want to open.

OK! That got it! Thanks for assisting this computer-inept individual.

You're welcome!  Since that table doesn't use a style to set its width attribute, Stylebot won't be able to help.  I'm just going to access the forums through www.mousebits.com/smf to get full-width pages.
