The content produced by Jquery Twitter Search (JTS) is quite OK, but its visual behaviour is, well, slightly weird. It could be due to my theme, but the other components (modules, blocks, whatever) are behaving normally, including some JQuery-based stuff. When I put a JTS block in a region, say the righthandside column, on top of the list, the tweets are not limited to the block zone: they flow over the entire righthand column, all the way down the screen. They are also visible in the small space which I have between my blocks. When I put JTS in the top content region, the tweets flow "through" the node title.

It would be a perfect block if I could tell the tweets to be Only visible in the region they are assigned to.

Thanks for reporting this issue could you, I just want to ask you some question to know more about this issue
is your a custom theme or a contrib theme ? if it's contrib theme please link me to the theme,

also which version of jQuery Twitter Search you are using currently, I faced this issue while I was using 7.2.0 and I remember fixing it in 7.2.2 thanks, I will try to reproduce this issue and get back to you once I get a clue.

Thanks for your reply!

- The version of JQuery Twitter Search is 7.x-2.2
- The theme I'm using is Newsflash 7.x-2.4 ( http://drupal.org/project/newsflash ). I have made some very mild CSS adjustments (color, font), but nothing to the extent that could explain the visual results of JQuery Twitter Search.

I hope I explained the problem in a clear way. I included 3 pictures, showing the problem.

The problem is that when I install a block made by JQuery Twitter Search, the results "bleed" through the rest of (and even outside of) the region where the block is placed.
- For instance: when I put the block in the "sidebar right" region, on top of the other blocks of that region, the results fill that whole region, and they even go beyond the wrapper of the page, i.e. beyond the bottom border of that region, below the last block. The results also "jump up", into the header part of my theme, and then slide a bit down again. I also notice that the tweets are covered by the blocks below the JQuery Twitter Search block, but they are visible in the small space between the various blocks of that region.
- Another example: when I put the block in the "content top" region, so on top of my node content, the tweet "animation" sometimes moves over the title of my node and then slides down again. They also fill the entire area of my node, and also here they go beyond the wrapper bottom of my page. On one of the attached pictures, you can see that the tweets are visible in the gaps just above and just below the "Cryptografie" block.

The problem is, in short, that the output of JQuery Twitter Search is not contained within its assigned block or even its assigned region.

Hi Artofeclipse, and Thanks and Congratulations! Release 7.x-2.3 works like a charm, and there is no more "bleeding" whatsoever. I'm just meddling with the various settings now, and everything is working as I hoped it would. Thanks for the Very Swift maintenance. You really made my day. And my site :-). It's not yet public, but your Twitter module will definitely be one of the core components. Thanks again!
