I have SMF 2.0 RC2 and installed Headline theme by Crip ( http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=1294 ) and the nav bar is messed up only with IE.....Crip has a Mac and does not know what to do to fix this.

My laptop has 1440 X 900 res and is kinda out of line, but my home comp has 1920 X 1200 and is way out of line.

Here is a pic of the demo, and my site looks just like it.   http://myfolderz.com/pics/navbar.jpg

I have installed a test forum on a domain I use to boost google hits to my main site.  http://robotcombatgames.com/Forum/

I have no clue what to do and I used FF web developer to help, but nothing I have done changed it. If somebody knows what I need to do, or thinks they can figure it out I have created and admin account and will post the user/password here....or in a PM. I have no clue whether it is in CSS, or index.template.....or whatev.

I NEED HELP, I can't figure it out and Crip won't/can't help.

Is your copy of IE up to date?
I have IE8, and it looks fine.

I have IE 7.....I don't like 8

Shouldn't be hard to fix. IE7 and IE6 do some funny things with paddings. Give me a few hours and I'll take a look at it.

THANKS....

If it will help to have admin access on a working forum go to http://robotcombatgames.com/Forum/index.php

I'll run it on one of my desktop test sites. Much easier and faster that way. ;)

Add this to ie6.css and ie7.css:

#toolbar {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 33px;
background: #fffffe;
}


There are a couple of other odd css glitches too.

#topmenu{
background: url(../images/img/topmenu-bgr.gif) repeat-x top;
height: 33px;
margin: 0 0 20px;
margin-bottom: -20px;
}


Is better as:

#topmenu{
background: url(../images/img/topmenu-bgr.gif) repeat-x top;
height: 33px;
margin: 0;
}


#searcharea has  overflow: hidden;  inserted twice. One instance of it should be removed.

Also this:

.windowbg, .windowbg2, .windowbg3, #preview_body, .content, .roundframe
{
color: #4444444;
background: #FFF url(../images/img/winbg.png) 0 0 repeat-x;
}


is invalid as it has seven numbers in the hex code. It should be #444444 or even just #444.

THANKS!!!

That fixed it.....I would not have found that in a million years.
