Problem with Ekko on the frontpage + Mozilla thing

**Glaanieboy** · June 5th, 2003

Unfortunately the comments box as well in Ekko as in Ekko Expanded is messed up. See attached picture to see what I mean.
This occurs in Mozilla 1.3 and in Internet Explorer 6 SP1.

The other thing I am having problems with, but only in Mozilla, are the sizes of the text-boxes, like the on I am typing this message in and the Quick Reply box. The height is OK, but the width is too small compared to IE6 (about half the size).

Yes, i have this problem as well, but that has to do with vB. They have to use CSS instead of HTML tags that are unsupported.

f00kers <_<

Noticed the front page today. Is that a new problem? I don't often comment on news articles..

And the I've just gotten used to the text boxes on the forums, doesn't bother me too much now.

I'll check em out tomorrow.

**SPeedY_B** · June 11th, 2003

Still pending

*shock*

**Electronic Punk** · June 11th, 2003

Ok, I see it in Ekko Expanded, but not in ekko... can you recheck its in ekko...

What resolution?

(can only test with ie6 atm)

It is in Expanded, not 'ekko'
Res : 1600x1200, doesn't change if I make the browser really slim though, it's too many table cells that are the problem (or not enough colspan/rowspan's)

**SPeedY_B** · June 11th, 2003

See attachment, shows that extra cells are the problem
everything is hi-lighted

**Electronic Punk** · June 11th, 2003

Thats a little strange... as it doesn't seem to restored the changed templates to default after I slapped the theme over the top. Lost? Doesn't matter

I'll see if it is a bug and tell Tingle.

**Electronic Punk** · June 11th, 2003

Fixed, sadly my suspisions are confirmed. Basically here is the lowdown.

Ekko Expanded came first.

Ekko came second and as my preference I decided to make this the theme that I would edit (the only differences between ekko and ekko expanded were the fixed and percentage widths switching between the headline box and the main page width between the two.)

To save time I therefore exported ekko and reimported it as ekko expanded and quickly made the changes.

Templates I had reverted back to the default in ekko were not reverted when I imported ekko over the top of ekko expanded.

Hence the problem, I'll have to go thru each page in ekko now to make sure there were no changes, unless a patch is released soon.

**SPeedY_B** · June 12th, 2003

Sooo, basically it's a pain in the ass :confused:

**Electronic Punk** · June 12th, 2003

It's ok, it shouldn't be an issue anymore as the templates I have remaining to edit have not been touched at all.

**Glaanieboy** · June 12th, 2003

Sooo, it should be fixed? I still have the problem, in Ekko and in Expanded. Using Mozilla 1.3, 1024*768.

**SPeedY_B** · June 12th, 2003

^What he said

**sboulema** · June 12th, 2003

yep same here. looks good in firebird, but the reply boxes ar small.

**Glaanieboy** · June 12th, 2003

This Firebird, what are the differences with Mozilla, keeping in mind that I only use Mozilla for browsing (no newsgroups, mail or shiz)? Then I am going to install it too. Oh, a d/l link would be cool too.
