Hi, Jacci again with hopefully my last skin question
http://www.pretendercentre.com/efictestrun/index.php   skin: pretender 1

I think it is my divs i am having problems with, but it is only affecting ie6 (seems to be fine in ie7, opera and firefox)

when i go to certain pages, such as edit bio, the pale blue container seems to strecth and the footer goes funny.

I suspect it is the way i have my divs set up, although am not sure

header

<!-- START BLOCK : header -->
<body>
<div id="{page_id}" class="pagecontainer">
<div id="banner"></div>
<div id="banner2"></div>

{menu_content}

<div id="mainpage">
<!-- END BLOCK : header -->

index:

<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : header -->
     <div id="welcome">{welcome}</div>
<div id="libox"><div id="ribox">
<div id="leftindex">
<div id="newstitle">{news_title}</div>
<div id="newscontainer">{news_content}</div>
<div id="newsarchive">{newsarchive}</div>     
</div>

<div id="rightindex">
<div id="stats">
       <div class="blocktitle">&nbsp;</div>
       <div class="blockcontent">{info_content}</div><br />
     </div>
<div id="categories">
       <div class="blocktitle">&nbsp;</div>
       <div class="blockcontent">{categories_content}</div><br />
    </div>
<div id="recent">
       <div class="blocktitle">&nbsp;</div>
       <div class="blockcontent">{recent_content}</div><br />
     </div>
<div id="featured">
       <div class="blocktitle">&nbsp;</div>
       <div class="blockcontent">{featured_content}</div>
     </div><br />

<div id="online">
       <div class="blocktitle">&nbsp;</div>
       <div class="blockcontent">{online_content}</div>
     </div> <br />
<span id="skin">{skinchange_content}</span><br /><br />
<span id="rss">{rss}</span>
</div>
<div style="clear: both;">&nbsp;</div>
</div></div>
       
<!-- INCLUDE BLOCK : footer -->

footer:

<!-- START BLOCK : footer -->
</div>
<div style="clear: both;">&nbsp;</div>
<div id="footer">
<div id="footertext">{footer}</div>
<div id="footernav">
{footermenu_content}
</div>

</div>
</div>
</div>
</div></div>
</body></html>
<!-- END BLOCK : footer -->

Are there any pages it's happening on that don't require me to be logged in?

no i am afraid not, it is mostly in the account info and the admin things

and only in ie6 as far as i can tell

and since my comp just updated itself even though i told it not to put in ie7 ggrrrr, now i cannot get it back out, i can't even go and have a look, i am depending on friends who have escaped the upgrade

Try sending the page through the WC3 validator.  It might catch an unclosed DIV for you.  Sounds more like you've got floated element that's clearing funky.  Try pulling that clear div out.

Sorry, got so many other issues this one slipped thru the cracks. At the moment it is working fine in ie7, opera and firefox and if i remove the clearfixes it goes screwy in evertyhing.

the css validator came up bad but if i did what it recommended, then it seemed not to work in anything at all.

So for the moment i am not going to worry anymore, have told ppl we have display page issues in ie6 and please use one of the other broswers if it is bothering them.

Can't please all the broswers all the time i guess

thanks for your efforts
jacci
