Okay, I'm not sure what happened here, because we haven't messed with any of the skins.  I did install the SMF bridge, but I'm not sure why that would affect this.

On some pages, the size of the main container (doesn't matter what skin) is too big, and it doesn't fit in the skin, so it drops it down below the rest of the page.  It doesn't do this for everything, though.

For example, rules.php is dropped down: http://www.mickiclark.com/efiction33/viewpage.php?page=rules
...but help.php isn't: http://www.mickiclark.com/efiction33/viewpage.php?page=help   They both use viewpage.php, so I don't think it's a problem with viewpage, or they'd both display incorrectly.

And another example:
Chapter 1 of this story is dropped:  http://www.mickiclark.com/efiction33/viewstory.php?sid=27&chapter=1
..but chapter one of this one isn't: http://www.mickiclark.com/efiction33/viewstory.php?sid=34&chapter=1

What browser are you using, it looks fine in the latest versions of IE7, Firefox, Opera and Safari. Maybe it's a resolution issue?


Skins made by Kali are no longer supported!

A bigger resolution may hide the problem, but it's still there (I have another test site and the skins worked fine before the SMF and after I removed it...but not while it was there).

To illustrate:
WITHOUT SMF bridge, it looks like this:

WITH the bridge (specifically, the get_session_vars and queries added to the includes folder):

If you look, you'll see that on this skin, the middle container's too big (and for some reason the right container has moved slightly).  All of our skins look a little off.  I know it has something to do with session_vars or queries because I have experimented by removing files one at a time and those changes are the only ones that make this happen.
