    I need help. I think I messed up my theme big time.
    I am using the theme Green Park 0.9.2 and I removed the side bar on the right.
    Then I changed the div#content tag from auto to 75%.
    It works fine on Firefox, but it does not on IE.

    My blog is https://www.dwellogy.com

    Can someone please take a look and let me know if there is a way to fix it?

    Thank you.

    Hi Dwellogy,
    At the moment you are using this bit of CSS:

    div#content { width: 75%;
                   margin: 0 202px 0 202px;
                   padding: 20px;
                   background: #efefef; }

    Try using this bit of CSS instead:

    div#content { width: auto;
                   margin: 0 10px 0 202px;
                   padding: 20px;
                   background: #efefef; }

    Hope this helps.

    It looks like it’s “still” trying to float, to me. If there’s any float: left; (that relates to the main body) REMOVE THAT!

    Or maybe right…. or maybe not at all… lol I’m getting tired. ??

    cwoodside, I changed the tags as per your suggestion, but nothing changed. Actually, the posts are now starting way down on the page, leaving a blank space on the top (in both IE and FF).

    WPITn2shape, I followed your suggestion and I did not see any changes, either…the problem is that now I don’t recall where I removed the float: left; tag from…silly me!

    Any more suggestions? I really like this theme, but I may end up looking for another one.

    Thank you.

    Hi Dwellogy,
    That’s a little odd, I had actually installed the template you are using and made the changes that I had suggested. Perhaps there is some other changes that you hacve made which are causing this?

    First place to start with cross-browser inconsistency is validation:

    Dwellogy,
    Have a look here:
    https://www.cosmicblend.net/testspace/generalwp/index.php

    This is a default install of wordpress, with the theme that you are using.

    Perhaps starting from scratch based of the stylesheet used here will help you move forward?

    Hope this helps,
    Chet

    Thank you, all.
    I will sleep on this and have a fresh look tomorrow…very tired at the moment and all the lines are blending together.

    Ok…I lied. I could not resist playing with the idea cwoodside gave me (to start from scratch), especially after I saw his test looking just like I wanted my blog to look like.

    Thanks, man. I believe it is working now.
    Now I just need to figure out how to replace the title of my blog (in white letters) with an image…lol…that’s for tomorrow.

    Good night, everyone. Thanks.
