Project vii Theme: Sideways Scroll

[Dezdan]

I am having an issue using the theme Project vii. No matter what size I set my browser window to, there is always a bottom scroll bar that scrolls aprox. one inch. No other theme has this issue (that I saw) and I cannot find what is causing this. I believe it to be the menu (more like the table it is in) causing the problem, as the background image 'top_panel_r2_c1.jpg' sticks out that extra inch or so. I am not sure where to start or how to fix this issue. Any suggestions or help?

Thanks,

link?

I hope you don't mind but I sent you the link via a PM. I don't like publicizing my site for a few reasons.

I do mind, read my signature. There's no such thing as a "private site" on the internet, unless you password-protect it.
Anyway, check your setting for "Width of the main table (pixels or %)" in coppermine's config.

DOH! Sorry, its been a long day!

There's no such thing as a "private site" on the internet, unless you password-protect it.

Prehaps 'private' was not the correct word. It is not scanned by any search engine bot, there are no links to it anywhere, and the only folks who know about it are my friends whom I have told. That's waht I meant about 'private'.

Anyway, check your setting for "Width of the main table (pixels or %)" in coppermine's config.

It is set to 100%.

Thanks again,

I had the same problem with my theme, which was based on project vii. I've figured out the culprit is in #SUB_MENU. This seems to get rid of the scrollbar

Code Select Expand

#SUB_MENU {
        padding-left: 20px;
}

Is it OK to commit?

[Dezdan]

That fixed it, THANKS!

From:

Code Select Expand

#SUB_MENU {
        width:100%;
        padding: 0 20px;
}


To:

Code Select Expand

#SUB_MENU {
        padding-left: 20px;
}

Thanks,

I was glad to discover this dusty old post, because the version of project vii theme I just downloaded from SourceForge today ( cpg1.5.x_theme_project-vii_v1.0.zip ) still has this bug in it.  I guess the fix was never committed?  Anyway, thanks for the solution.  I would commit it myself if I knew how.

Here's the modified file.  You need to unzip it, and replace this style file in your project-vii theme folder.  Then refresh your browser window to see the change.
