This style removes ads, but keeps "Expand\Collapse all" & "Print\Forward all" available in the right sidebar. Besides it removes the Chat box & the Invite box.

There's only one value you should modify - that is "div[class='XoqCub ice3Ad'] {width: 970px !important;}"
I have 1280x768 screen & 970px is OK for me. You should find your best value.

I don't code for the living, so any comments & corrections will be highly appreciated.

P.S. I still can't figure it out how to fix the width of the page so that the scroll bar disappear. Any help will be highly appreciated!

This style was great until Gmail update (3rd of March, 2009). Can you update your style, please ? ***

Awesome man!
To Reeseo: I changed the units to em, and that made it way worse.
Now, I absolutely have no clue about programming..but i just deleted 990px and put in "auto" (without quotes) and it removes the scroll bar and fits my screen perfectly. Don't know if what I did was dumb or noobish, but hey, it worked for me. Thanks again. *****

Just found this script and am really enjoying it, as it takes out the two things I want gone from Gmail the most: the chat and the ads. Thanks! *****

change the first classname to slwyWc to preserve maps/calendar additions based on message content. ****

Excellent. I've used the 'chat' part. Thanks. :) *****

This is what I've really wanted! :)

FYI: (1) By using "em" units rather than "px" units for the div[id=msgs] element, I could let the width of the message box vary automatically according to the current font size, conserving "about 80 column" convention. In other words, regardless of the zooming by Ctrl-+ and Ctrl-- feature of Firefox, my Gmail always displays about 80 alphanumeric characters per one line.

(2) Also by using "em" units for the div[id=fic] element, I could fine-tune the horizontal distance between the message box and special menus, conserving almost same (minimal) distance regardless of the zooming. :) *****
