This forum looks weird

Is anyone else having this trouble? The stuff that should be at the bottom of the page is located on the right side of the page, scrunching everything together and making it hard to read.


Anyone else having this problem? It makes it hard to read and is the reason I don't come here very often anymore...

It's a coding thing.

It works fine on my Netscape browser.

This site looked fine on my Mac copy of Explorer up until earlier this year. Then it seemed the look of the site changed a bit.

oh well...

I see the stuff in the right places, but the text spreads off the screen. I'm using IE6 and 1024x768 resolution, so this shouldn't happen because of trouble on my end.

This problem crops up at random on various pages. Often just one page of messages in a thread. Let me know if I can help with more data.

I think with the text spreading off the screen, that might be caused by people posting a long url or a lot of text with no spaces between the words. Or a big/long picture.

Yeah, that was my first theory too. But neither of those things happened in this thread, and it's a double-wide.

Next?

I have been running myself ragged to find a solution to the abnormal post widening. Every solution I find never seems to work. Sorry guys. If anyone knows how to fix this or has PHP experience (Doug) please contact me.
