    Forum layout issue?

    Anyone else getting this? Seems like the forums and private messaging layout has shrunk in width and height?

    Well everything was fine until I opened this post. This post has a bunch more space on the right hand side than I normally see. Everything else seems pretty normal though MsM.

    I was going to say no, mine is fine and then took another look. Your right , my screen shows about 3/4 of rhe forum and just an empty section on the right side. Also where it used to show what was written previously in the thread (that showed at the bottom ) is now missing.
    EDIT: after posting my reply every thing was again normal, untill I came back to edit?

    I get the same effect, but after a couple of seconds Mozilla seems to kick into action and expand the forum to the right side of the screen as it should. There does seem to be a slightly larger margin on certain pages though.

    There's also a huge chunk at the bottom when I reply to threads using the full options. It goes away when I edit though.

    EDIT: On replying to this topic using the full options (instead of the quick reply) I got a huge white margin to the left (probably seems large because I'm running at a high resolution).

    Here's a quick fix. I'm using 1024x768, so you may need to play with the numbers
    if you're running a different resolution.

    Code:
    BODY { font-size: 100% ! important; }
    BODY {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    TD {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    TR {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    TH {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    FORM {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    TEXTAREA {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    CENTER {max-width: 980px ! important }
    TABLE {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    P {max-width: 980px ! important; }
    TD {font-size: 90% ! important; }
    TR {font-size: 90% ! important; }
    TEXTAREA {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    .nf {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    .sf {font-size: 60% ! important; }
    SELECT {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    Copy and paste it to a file. You can name it something like antionline.css
    In internet explorer, in tools menu--> internet options--> accesibility
    There's a choice to use your own style sheet.
    I'm not quite sure where it is in Mozilla.


    or maybe like this

    Code:
    BODY { font-size: 110% ! important; }
    TD {font-size: 90% ! important; }
    TR {font-size: 90% ! important; }
    TEXTAREA {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    .nf {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    .sf {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    SELECT {font-size: 100% ! important; }
    I came in to the world with nothing. I still have most of it.

    When I click the discussion forum link and it loads the page that shows all the different forums, I have a space on teh right side of the screen. The actual page is only using 3/4 of the width of the screen.

    Also the user tends to assign bar is screwed up. It seems like its shrunk.

    XP Pro and IE 6, same problem. About 1/3 of the page on the right side of the screen is blank.

    Also when I reply to a post, under the "submit reply", "preview reply" and "spell check" buttons, there is a monstrously huge blank space.
