Yes, it did. I made it a little too wide, and I'd like to try making it
a little narrower. I'm also going to try specifying the width for the
parent cell in the top-level table, which may help (I just noticed that
it had a width of 1% specified, which could encourage a browser to
indulge in a bit of overly agressive rendering while waiting for another
chunk of HTML to come across a slow line). We may want to back the
change out altogether, but I'm not sure yet.
I committed this change a few minutes ago, and it has now propagated to
the live Web site, so give it a try.
Does anyone else see the problem you're having (the resizing, not the
wider pager)? I can't make it happen no matter which browser I use. I
don't have a 1.0 Mozilla, but I do have an old 0.9.8 version lying
around, and that works fine (but that's over my cable connection, I
can't access a slow connection with that machine). The only really slow
connection I have access to is an AOL dial-up, and that doesn't resize.
Of course, AOL uses IE for its browser, so that doesn't tell us much
about the Gecko derivatives on a slow line. But it's slow enough to see
the page rendering begin, the empty pager frame appear at the proper
size, the text in the main "window" frame rendered, and then the images
start appearing in the pager - without the pager resizing. This is
exactly the way it's *supposed* to happen.
Does anyone else have access to a slow connection and a browser other
than Internet Exploder? If so, would you try out the pages and let us
know if you see the resizing problem Dominik describes?
Cheers,
Bob
