The plugin page (http://www.quinnware.com/plugins.php) doesn't look OK in Mozilla (tested in Firebird 20040131 nightly and Mozilla 1.6)

It is a tad bit messed up in my Firebird (0.7) but not even close to that bad.

I can confirm that.

I can even provide a screenshot.

Basically, you can't most of the new plugins part, and can't read the description for the top 3 buttons.

I am using Firefox Nightly 03-02-2004, but I"ve experienced this on every build I visited this site with.

Just to let you know, Firefox is based on the Gecko engine, which affects Netscape 6+.

Yeah, mat knows about this issue, but he thinks its something to do with the gecko engine...
Whilst i'm here, i might as well just mention some other website bugs i've found on firefox .8... for one, how did you actually manage to upload that picture gzero3k? I thought there was picture dimension limits imposed... Its really screwing up the site anyway... (attachment 1...)
And also, i've noticed the compose message area isn't really fitting into the boundaries... (attachment 2...)

AAAAARGH. :grimreape :skull: What on Earth happened to the plugin page? I too use mozilla but now it looks more messed up than ever! Just like you can see in gzero3k's post. There must be a fix :hurt:

That is messed up,but I have no problems with IE ha ha ha.

That's because IE doesn't render pages like they're supposed to be rendered. Not to mention very bad CSS support, and the fact that IE's CSS support won't be updated for quite a while.

I think I read somewhere that the mess up is due to putting images inside tables.

For the image, I just used the IMG tag, and yeah, it does look screwy.

FWIW, the problem comes from overflow-x and overflow-y being used, which are proprietary IE extensions. Replacing them with an "overflow: auto" seem to work.

Where, in the preferences window, do i change it to "auto"?

You can't. Its a CSS attribute, not a browser setting. I downloaded the page and messed around with it.

It's cleared up now. Strange. But good :)
Edit: It's messed up again. I spoke too soon.

i see what u mean. just get rid of the
overflow-y: auto; overflow-x: none;

and replace it with

overflow: auto;

does the trick

yeah i noticed that, so i cheated :bandit:. copied and pasted the code from the "view source window" into notepad, changed it and it works, of course everything looks all wierd coz it can't find the images and what not but it shows that it can be fixed.

Where did you save the edited code?

just create a text document in notepad, paste code and save it as something like "plugins.php"

it doesn't matter where you save it.
like it was already mentioned, none of the graphics will show because the file has been separated from the website where the graphics are stored. i think it was mostly a test to see if that was really the problem. matt just needs to fix it now.
