| by sunsnapper on 2003/11/13 6:38:35 That is correct. It is an issue of having a 100% width table (or table element) nested inside another table. Slashdot uses a 99% table to get around this... others just use 99.9%... it's a matter of trying to force IE 5.x to make an actual calculation instead of a quick assumption... as I recall anyways. This thread includes suggested margin and padding, as well by onokazu. https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=8976&forum=20#forumpost35452 |

| by MadFish on 2003/11/10 11:10:54 Many thanks, I've got it working now. Working in the Mambo theme, changing the default table width (2nd line of css) to 99% still looked horrible. This had me stumped until I tried 90% and it looks ok. I must have a particularly awful version of IE 5. In the Karate Redux Blue theme I only had to change default table width down to 97% for it to look good...so I'll probably run with that. One strange thing is that not all of the elements are resizing in equal proportions - the spotlight block and the notifications block shrank a bit more than everything else. Another thing I noticed about the two themes that do seem to work directly vs the rest (imago 2&5) is that they have i) explicitly specified a width for the centre-centre block and ii) its set at <100%. I assume that themes that don't explicitly do i) would probably assign the default table value (100%) to centre-centre blocks...I wonder if this is the main hotspot of IE 5 problems ? |

| by MadFish on 2003/11/9 5:40:24 Thanks Sunsnapper. Do I need to change it in just theme files (style.css and theme.html) ? Or do I need to adjust the templates under each module as well ? |

| by MadFish on 2003/11/9 5:06:06 Thanks for your interest philou When you say 'fix' the font values, do you mean I should specify a particular pixel size or font size ? ie. not use settings like 'small' ? |
