Hi all,
love CMSMS, enabled me to get a website up very quickly when i don't have much time. I am having a problem with the Content Column  content being pushed down the page when i add some long text in the sidebar column. Doesn't happen all the time though. http://www.ozicozi.com.au/surfacetech/i ... n-products you can see it here, can't work out why this would happen. If anyone can offer some help i would greatly appreciate it.
Just tried it in Firefox and Chrome and it is fine, just seems to be weirding out in IE.

hellman,

Code: Select all

<table border="0" cellpadding="5" width="700">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="20%"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Allround</span></td>
<td width="20%"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Boat</span></td>
<td width="20%"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Car & Truck</span></td>
<td width="20%"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Aircraft</span></td>
<td width="20%"><span style="font-size: small; font-family: verdana,geneva;">Pool & Spa</span></td>

</tr>
Try to set width to 19% or something.
5 times 20% = 100%. No problem for (good) browser, but IE counts the pixels in an other strange way.
The table with width=100% is becoming to big and floats to the bottom of the website.

Hope this helps,
®olf
