Horizontal scrollbar in SHOWTHREAD template

**eJM** · 04-13-2008, 08:45 PM

The title says it - there seems to be a width issue in the CSS or HTML for SHOW THREAD template. My screen resolution is 1280x1024 and the scroll bar seems to think the viewport should be much larger. But when I drag the side of the browser to span across 2 monitors, the scroll bar does not reduce, it stays the same relative to the size of the viewport.

It does not happen using the FireFox browser. You can complain and blame MS all you want, but it's still an issue that needs fixin'. The skin designer is the one to talk to.

It's strange that there has been no reply by a staffer. Too busy? Think I'm full of it? Whatever, here's a cropped screen shot:

While you're at it, maybe you could have someone take a look at this problem too:

I guess I should have said I was using IE7. It is happening, as I showed in the screen shots. IE7 is a very popular browser.

Yes, it has already been reported that the problem does not ocurr in IE6 or in Mozilla based browsers. I didn't intend this to be a poll on who sees the errors and who doesn't. I merely reported the problems and was hoping it would be taken care of. For the webmasters of a webmaster forum, that shouldn't be a difficult task. Perhaps one of the CSS/XHTML wiz's will post a simple fix for the problems.
