Page layout: message under, not beside, sideboxes

The forum page layout puts the 'meat', the actual posts
more than a page down from the top.

I think the 'Main Menu'' box and the 'Latest Topics' box
are mean to be beside, to the left, but for me, they are on top
of the posts.

I've had this problem too.

Squid, this is apparently only a problem when using IE on OS X. When Mark switched the forum over to this new format, I began using Safari specifically to avoid the problem. I don't know if there is a real fix for it, but I've grown to love Safari!

It's also that way on IE using MacOS 9.2.

I was finally able to track down and resolve this issue. IE 5 on the Mac should now render the pages correctly. That said, I would still recommend moving to Mozilla or Safari as there are numerous dynamic pop-up menus that you can use when on these browsers. Unfortunately IE 5 on the Mac is severly crippled when it comes to full javascript support (needed to display and manage the pop-up menus).

Mark,
I hope you didn't spend *too* much time working on this problem! It really was just a minor inconvenience. Nonetheless, thank you for fixing it! :smile: :smile:
