371616 - Several stylesheet anomalies

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Public Pages, defect)

Description

[Simon Bünzli]

1. With Firefox 2.0.0.*, there's no margin between the page border and the legalese at the bottom of all pages (making the legalese somewhat difficult to read).
2. When browsing a category (e.g. http://remora.stage.mozilla.com/de/firefox/browse/type:1/cat:all ), the extension descriptions aren't all left-aligned to the same point but start at a seemingly arbitrary point, making the page look less polished than necessary.
3. Extension names look overly big in IE7 compared to Firefox 2.0.
4. The language selector at the bottom right is way too small in IE7.

Fixed 1,2,4. In revision 2360.

1. Added a padding for the #footer div that makes it look centered and !stupid.
2. Removed the width: 100% that always makes IE sad for .category-block... IE7 did not fix the float model like I would have hoped.  It still thinks 100% means 100% of the page and pushes non-floats below their floating counterparts.
3. So?! :)
4. Agreed.  Removed font-size: smaller; and replaced with inherit.  Makes it slightly bigger in Fx but it's not a sin and looks fine to me.

More on 3 -- this is not a major hinderance and is due mostly to the difference in default font size, which changes the appearance of em-based font sizes.  If you think it's worth fighting about, state your case! :)
