91008 - chandralevy.com - layout is poor in Moz

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect, P4)

Description

[Adam Masri]

Platform: PowerBook G3/300/192Mb/25Gb, MacOS X 10.0.4
Fizzilla Build: 2001071305

At the Chandra Levy website

http://www.chandralevy.com/

you'll notice that a lot of the formatting is off. Communicator 4.76 displays
this site well. I'm not sure how much of this is evangelism and how much is
misinterpretation by Moz of the code.

looks pretty much identical to me in NS 4.x and Moz build 2001-07-15-21 on
Linux.  [e-mail], could you possibly describe in more detail exactly what
is wrong?

This could well be an OS X only bug, of course.

Scroll down about half way down the page, and look at the right column. Note
that the text draws outside the bounds of the columns, and the "Join the Chandra
Levy Mailing List" box draws outside the bounds of the rounded corner blue
rectangle. Also note that the blue rectangles themselves don't draw completely
as they do in 4.7x.

A friend on Win98 asked me to post this bug, so obviously it's a problem there too.

I think this goes under "bad site design".  Try decreasing the size of your
default fixed-width font in Mozilla...

Attaching some screenshots.

dead site

Comment 9

Site not dead.  The column border overlaps text by a few pixels.

redesigned and no more columns that could make problems
