Simple Problem

[Stunner]

So simple I can't figure out how I did it and can't figure out how to fix it. Somehow I got my main page to center parts of itself. See the provided pics. I don't know how it did it but it's centered on IE but not Firefox.

Firefox Version

Internet Explorer Version

I thought I've seen a problem like this before but couldn't find where. Any help is appreciated.

It sounds like a div align issue.

[peterska2]

Thats definately a <div align="center"> or even just a <center> that hasn't been closed somewhere along the lines.

[Stunner]

Been a while since I replied but what template would be causing this problem?

[Dismounted]

I'm guessing the footer template. In between the "What's Going On" HTML Comment Tags.

If you or anyone can find the problem let me know.

I get this alot on IE as well.

[Stunner]

Just another example of why IE is kissing Firefox's butt,lol

[peterska2]

that template section is fine stunner.

Does this occur on all pages or just on forumhome?

[Ziki]

What version are you running?I had this problem on my 3.5.4 but since I upgraded to 3.5.7 this works fine.

[Stunner]

That is just on forum home. When viewing a thread with IE it shows spaces between the postbit and the message itself. On Firefox this problem doesn't seem to exist.

I am up-to-date with 3.6.4

[peterska2]

Can you export your current style and attach it and I'll see whats going on with it.
