Re: [css-d] IE6 problems: positioning and unwanted centering
Alan, thanks for your help. I knew it would be a long shot to hope for a quick fix, and I appreciate your suggestions.

Secondly, few of us would even dare try to attempt a fix for IE6 when it could take *days or weeks to properly de-bug*. Here is my attempt. http://css-class.com/x/oftw.htm All I have attempted is to hack IE6 into line. As you can see, IE6 is having major problems still. There are quite a few IE6 bugs happening. To many to list here but this may be one of them. http://www.satzansatz.de/cssd/apstaticposition.html -- Alan http://css-class.com/ Armies Cannot Stop An Idea Whose Time Has Come. - Victor Hugo __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
Re: [css-d] IE6 problems: positioning and unwanted centering
David, thanks for your reply! I fixed the centering problem; it was indeed lurking in a stylesheet I hadn't looked at, here: http://testdrupal.transformativeworks.org/sites/all/themes/zen/zen/ie.css The other two issues are unresolved. Any suggestions? Thanks, Kristen On Aug 16, 2009, at 3:38 PM, David Laakso wrote: With regard only to question 3.

[css-d] Help needed with IE6
I'm designing a Drupal theme and, unsurprisingly, am running into some problems with IE6. All of these things are displaying correctly in FF, IE7, Safari, and Opera. 1. The main (horizontal) menu is displaying in the wrong place. 2. There's a blank space between div#main and div#footer. 3. Bizarrely, all of the text is centered!

Re: [css-d] IE7 layout problems
float:left fixed the menu. Thank you!
And I just figured out the width problem: it was being caused by a
right margin on the header that was left over from an earlier
positioning strategy. :P
Thanks again,
Kristen

[css-d] IE7 layout problems
I'm developing a fluid-width, two-column Drupal theme using the float- over-the-border method (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/ multicolumnlayouts). The page is displaying properly in Firefox, Safari, Opera, and IE8, but I'm running into two layout problems in IE7: 1. There's extra white space to the right of the page, creating a horizontal scroll bar. 2. The main menu (div #header-blocks) is too far up; it should be directly underneath the red banner. The test site is here: http://testdrupal.transformativeworks.org/ CSS: http://testdrupal.transformativeworks.org/sites/all/themes/ cavatica/cavatica.css The PHP template file can't be accessed directly through the test site, so I've uploaded a copy here: http://purplelagoon.org/Stuff/ template.zip Any suggestions would be welcome!

I think before worrying too much about IE/7, it may be more advantageous to get IE/8 on-board, first. These are some suggetions you might try for that very first step Oh, I thought I'd already removed that 180px margin. I've removed it now. The link colors still need tweaking for all browsers, but I want to focus on getting the positioning right first.
