Reply overflowing fixed width layout

I searched for this issue in the forum, but had no luck.

The attachment should illustrate the problem. This is on showentry.php.

Have you made any changes to your 'postbit_legacy' template? If so, try reverting it and see if you still have that problem.

When I revert the style all the way back to the original vB Blue, the problem goes away. But if I copy and paste the 'postbit_legacy' from that original vB Blue into my custom style (which shold be the original code, right?) it overflows the layout like the attachments above.

Sounds like you've got an error somewhere in your coding then.

Go there, enter the URL to your vBa Dynamics page that you're seeing this problem on, click the 'More Options' link, check the 'Show Source' box that appears there, then click 'Check'. That will show you any XHTML errors on your page and should help to find the problem.

Thank you Brian.

I'll do that. I appreciate your help.

Brian,

If I enter a fixed width in my postbit_legacy template I can get the replies to line up properly. Is this an okay way to fix this, or is there a possibility that something else might be affected negatively?

<table id="post$post[postid]" class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="905" align="center">

As far as I'm aware, that should be fine if it fixes the problem.
