3 columns with Cleaker theme?

  • At martijn.pos5.nl, I’m using the Cleaker theme, which I edited a bit.
    The problem is, in IE7.0 or FireFox 3, the theme is displayed correctly, with the three columns side by side. But in IE6, which a lot of my friends use, the middle column with widgets is displayed under the right column. I think it has something to do with the CSS file, but I can’t find out what it is. I already disabled all the widgets. Anybody a suggestion?

  • Ummm. Yeah. Tell your friends to switch to Firefox 3, and forget IE.
    I’m sure they won’t miss it a bit. They’ll see thousands of pages properly,
    not just yours, and it’s 1000 times better software than IE. It’s that simple.
    Convince them that they’re behind. Tell them what they’re missing, in your blog.
    That’s what blogs are for, I guess.

    Thank you for your reply but it’s not the solution I was looking for. I’m afraid I can’t convince everybody to switch to Firefox so I hope someone can help me.

    Thank you!

    May be if we tried really hard and offered nice rewards to everyone who switched we really could rid the world of IE in all its iterations. Just imagine what a nice place the world would be.

    martijnpos, it’s the padding in #content, #sidebarLeft and #sidebarRight that’s wreaking havoc to your layout in IE6 which interprets rules in its own way, to put it mildly, which adds unexpected widths breaking the layout.
    Add in your style.css:

    #content {
padding-right: 0;
}
    #sidebarRight {
padding-left: 0;
}
    #sidebarLeft {
padding-left: 0;
}

    Then from there, if you want to increase padding-left in increments of 1-2px till before it drops down….
    Good luck.
