  • SOLVED: Quick CSS question?

    Posted 13 years 3 weeks ago
    • Since I no longer have a Rocket Theme developer account, I'm unable to post this in the Replicant forum but I'm hoping someone can help me with what appears to be a CSS issue on one of my former websites.

      I installed a Rocket Theme template (Replicant) for a client a while back and he notified me today that the content in the middle of the homepage has gone all wonky. It's supposed to fit within the column but as you can see, it extends out of it. I'm not sure when it started looking like this, but it used to display properly. You can see it by scrolling down past the slideshow. It begins with a post titled "Jewell's Apology": www.pbsusa.org/

      I've taken a look at the code using Firebug, but I'm not familiar enough with how that works to really understand what I need to change or where. I would really appreciate any help anyone could give me as to how to fix this for my former client since I'm not longer setting up websites.

      Thanks in advance,
      Melanie

    • Hi Melanie,

      Looks fine in Firefox. Is this with any specific browser?

    • Thanks for that quick reply, David. I'm glad it looks OK in Firefox!

      I didn't even think to look at other browsers--my bad. It's messed up in Chrome and Safari, and it's extra-messed up in IE: in addition to the text extending out, there's a big blank space before the text ever starts.

      Thanks for your help!

    • Hi Melanie,

      It is the extra long link that is being displayed in 3rd paragraph. Tell them to reword the article so it doesn't display the whole link. They can easily include the full link but set the text that is displayed to show the website. That way when people click on the link they go to the article. If they choose not to click the link then they can see the main website name.

      Hope this helps 8)
