hi.
I tried to use this theme but in ie6 the blocks in the right sidebar are going down, under the content. I installed it in a fresh drupal, the same problem. the demo in adaptive themes is ok. I sent a screen shot.

Yes, I'm seeing this as well in FF3 Mac, although not consistently. Looking at this with Firebug, it appears that the right column regions are nested in the content region instead of being outside like the left columns. I think an extra closing DIV on line 179 of page.tpl.php will fix this.

Not going to fix. Works in compliant browsers and in the front end the display is not an issue, only the blocks admin page in a crappy old dinosaur browser.

Excuse me, but, as I stated above, this is an issue in the latest version of a standards-compliant browser -- Firefox 3.0.10. And it was happening when viewing a node, not admin.

That being said, it turns out there was a missing closing DIV in a template used by one of my modules. Fixed it and the theme's good to go.

BTW, like your Element Styling Cheat Sheet.

Well it kind of annoys me when people make bug reports against features...

Can you share what module, I cannot get them to line up right so we are confused if we only want a 3 col do we use L and R (4) so the content bottom 1 & 2 blocks will show? Was not sure if it was a DIV I have been hunting for as if one bottom 1 or two block is missing nothing shows. IN CURRENT Newswire it does but we had been working with the 3 version and our scouring the code for answers, I covey anyone's 2 cents.

I am also facing the same problem in IE6 and I think your solution will work for it. As you know the page.tpl.php has gone through many changes since then, I don't know where should I place the DIV tag in the new template file. Could you help?

can anyone comment on if they found a fix to this. Shows error in all current browsers still.

2. Can anyone clarify if you want a 3 col layout would one use
Left (col 1)
Main Content (col 2)
Right (col 4)

or
Left (col 1)
Main Content (col 2)
Right 2 (col 3) (thought this was the extra section with right top and bottom etc)

Thanks

page.tpl is missing closing div after main content bottom, when added all is well on admin screen too.

Please can you mention the line no.?

You will have to look at page tpl and search for main content bottom our line numbers may be different due to modification. Look around 152 and search the region.

There is a missing DIV?

venusrising’s picture

Hey Jeff-
In main content bottom we noticed a missing line 152 page.tpl

print $main_content_bottom;

we added this closing div and the block screen got back to normal.
endif;

There of course is still an issue with many admin pages having overlapping blocks (like add content) but this makes the block layout screen show up right.

This may be a Quotes Module problem, but my quotes at www.tonytharp.com are taking up only about half of the width of their assigned block in the Newswire theme. Anyone else running into this or have a solution for this problem in Drupal 7 . . . .?
