proFormell Version: 1.2.4 / sub forum text overwrites image

Post by imtim »

Hi Mark

Firstly, thanks for the great forum style - is really cool!

I am using it at http://forum.intermorphic.com

You mentioned to send you an email if there were any bugs. Well, there is
just one that is visual, and temperamental. I use the latest Firefox btw.

The text which shows the subforums is overwriting the image for the
subforum. Sometimes it happens, sometimes not. If you click one of the
subforum links the text will reflow correctly (so it does not overlap the
image), and sometimes if you refresh the page. I think it is a CSS issue,
and I did not get this with Prosilver or the other std one...

Any ideas what is causing this?

Well, I really can't see it over here. I'll get some screenshots from other browsers and I'll see what I can do.
Anyhow, I've already seen that issue with firefox in other sites that were using prosilver based styles. Since I didn't edit the forumlist of prosilver, I actually think that this is more likely to be a browser parsing issue.

What version of Firefox are you exactly using?

Ok, I did some screenshots and I couldn't reproduce your error with any of the browsers:

Hi Mark

Very impressive you did all those screen shots - thanks for the thoroughness in checking.

I am getting the issue in FF 3.6.3, and attach a screen shot I took just now. I know it is not just me, as someone else also reported it. FWIW I don't see the issue in Safari (4.0.5)

Odd!

I really think this is a parsing issue in Firefox. All the images you added have the same CSS styling behind them, but as you can see, the first and second image work without any issues. Only after that it starts to do the issue you describe.
I already had something like this a while back with Internet Explorer. It somehow doesn't parse the CSS until you click on it or do something else with the CSS to trigger the browser to actually load what the page wants it to load.
