Columns out of order in FireFox 2.0.0.6 on MacBook Pro - OSX 10.4.10 - WordPress v 2.2.2

Submitted by petelacis on August 30, 2007 - 7:46pm in

Are there any bug fixes for this? My blog at http://www.petelacis.com is not showing up properly on my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.4.10 in either Firefox 2.0.0.6 or Safari. Essentially, the two "side" colums are showing up underneath the main content column. This problem does not appear to happen in Windows XP running IE 7. FYI - I am running WordPress v 2.2.2

thanks!


I'm finding that it happens

I'm finding that it happens on my blog at www.logosmith.net in IE7 too on standard width monitors. Maddenly, I can't make it happen on my widescreen notebook, even if I switch resolution to 1068 wide, nor can I force it by making the window narrow (like you can with a lot of layout problems).

Firefox vs IE

This is happening to me also. In Firefox, the widgets are on the bottom. In IE, they are in the right place. Has anyone found how to fix this? Thanks!

Update - I'm still wrestling

Update - I'm still wrestling with this issue, although I may give up and move on to another theme. I'm thinking it has to do with the comments.php page, but I can't figure out where to apply any tags to fix it.

I noticed that static pages don't have the problem, but blog posts do. All blog posts end up with a comment box (even if comments are closed), so that's why I'm suspicious.

In the page.php template file (used with static pages), you see code like:

div id="contentleft">
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>
<?php the_content(__('Read more'));?><div style="clear:both;"></div>

comment.php doesn't have the clear:both reference anywhere in it. I'm thinking that's where the problem lies. But then I look at the code and everything goes black. Also, I don't know that comment.php is the page that generates all the code for a post page (anything where the complete url is yourdomain.com/?p=n (where n is the post number), but I can't find another page that would do it.

Help? Anyone?

I reloaded a fresh copy of

I reloaded a fresh copy of this theme and re-applied my tweaks I had made to my l and r columns. It seems to be working okay now. In the process, I forgot to hang on to my tweaks where I had added tag support in the articles. Now let's see if I can add those back in without breaking it again...
