[resolved] Odd formatting issue (5 posts)

    Howdy. My wordpress theme is based off the eDegree° Theme by Top Blog Formula. I haven't meddled around too much with the code, but apparently enough to screw this up: http://www.probablefailure.com/author/sebastian/ In a perfect world, I would like that whole big white section to the left to go away. Anyone have any suggestions or see any errors in the code?

    EDIT: Well I noticed through the "Theme Preview" of the original theme that it suffers from the same issue!

    Any help would greatly be appreciated!

    Don't know about Internet Explorer, but this works in Firefox. Change .author at line 398 in style.css to this:

    .author {
    background:url("images/post-title-line.gif") repeat-x scroll 0 bottom transparent;
    display:block;
    margin-left:auto;
    margin-right:auto;
    padding:0 0 7px;
    width:900px;
    }

    That ended up with some issues, but put me on the right track. For anyone else that has this issue I took the style properties from the main page and applied to the author one. I also had to add an exact url, but looks fine now:

    .author {background: color:#515151 #edecec url(http://www.probablefailure.com/wp-content/themes/edegree/images/skin-blue/back-body.gif) repeat-x; font: 11px Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #575757; } /*5e5e5e*/

    Oh god I love the internet.
