Hi,

Same prob with the logo.

The install also set the fixed width setting to auto. Was this style checked with fixed width pages or floating or both? After the update, my site is still OK in Firefox but I hav e left-righ-center problem in IE8.

I had to reset set page_width and page_maxwidth back to what it was.

But now parts of the pages align to right, some to left. I will get back when I have solved this. Or am I just confused. It seems the page dis-align when I resize the browser window in IE8, not in firefox. But if I refresh the window, things fall back in place again. I can not remember seeing this before. Is this normal with a fixed width vB4 page? Or did I get it with the themplate and css rewrite?

In any case, back up before installing this!

PS
Can anyone tell me what tables to restore from a mySQL backup to recover the previous style?

Thats actually a problem in vbulletin 4.0's style system for centered fixed with styles and IE version 7 (and under) was what we confirmed it in. We made corrections to our style itself to fix the problems on our sites.

We confirmed this by testing on a fresh vb 4.0 style and changing the values to give it a fixed width and then resizing in IE. With just those changes the problem is clearly present in the style itself. The problem was that elements were losing context to their placement due to ie's poor handling of elements sizes, and the fact that its not recalculating things it should (which is why its only present on resizing, and only in fixed width styles where the center position changes, if you notice all the elements with the problem should be the ones defined as static (if I remember correctly). The solution was to move the width attribute off the body tag onto the main divs that control the content (header, footer, and maincontent).

Hope that helps you some.

OK, so do you have a suggestion?

After installing this update, my pages where float / full width. So I set page_width and page_maxwidth to fixed values, with margins as auto.

Should I have done it another way to get a fixed width centerd?

Well, by design that's how you would do it, and thats the proper way to do it now-a-days. But we all know IE doesn't like to play by the standards, so we had to code it up for IE so that the widths and margins were on the 3-4 main containing divs and not the body, and that seemed to fix it.

Embarrased. :p It was the IE8 compatability mode. Turning it off solved the problems.

just reverted that stylevar and upgraded to the latest version, nothing changed ... still have the header's issue ... :S

edit: NVM: just fixed!

please delete this thread...

the user has deleted his vbulletin forum

Until PT changes so that the fixes he put forth are invalid, the thread should remain anyway. The file is attached here at vb.org so it's not going anywhere, even if he did change to use another forum software.
