 * Hello all, the problem I have right now is that when you view a post in a category,
   the post doesn’t fit inside and goes out of the box on both sides. Like it needs
   to be 90% instead of 100% but I can’t find where to edit the format for category
   posts. Thanks.

 * you might want to provide a link, so people can view the site and source, so 
   to perhaps find the problem, rather than give a band-aid.
 * It could be a bad tag, or an image, which I’ve seen both bork a div.

 * that would help, sorry about that
 * I’m using this url to finish the site design and then move it over.

   will see the problem

 * Your text in the post is in a div called “entrytext” but I couldn’t find it defined
   in the CSS.

 * Check the [validation of your site](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.nascarusa.net/%3Fp%3D52)
   as there are some errors there that might fix your problem up.
 * You have two inline style references that deal with your #header. This is sure
   to cause some conflicts.
 * Your “post” is in the `content` and `post` selectors (style references) so check
   in your CSS for those to clean up the problems with the post size.
 * You also have a javascript in the wrong place. You put it there as these usually
   don’t come with the Themes. Check in the `header.php` template file at the very
   top for the script. It needs to be in the `head` section which begins with:
 * `<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">`
 * There are other problems, but let’s start there.

 * wow, lots of issues for a template. It’s pretty much stock from when I downloaded
   it.
 * As for the “post”, in the CSS “post” and “content” there are no references to
   post size.
 * Thanks for the help, I haven’t seen any differences in browsers though so thats
   good for starters.
 * I fixed the javascript and #header doubles.

 * I took a look at your site just now in FF Mac, and it’s still needing help. I
   noticed the theme is set up for a sidebar, but you’ve removed the sidebar.
 * I’ve seen some really nice one column themes, as well, you may want to simply
   look at some of those, and just skim the header navigation if you really like
   it. And speaking of, it looks like the last nav button is not lining up with 
   the others, and that is one reason things are out of whack.

 * Well, allpedal, your site still has alignment issues in Win FF1.0.4, and IE6.0.
   
   What changes did you make to the original Scattered theme? Is the `widecolumn`
   declaration the same as in the original, with the same padding, width and margin
   settings? Can’t think of what else changes the width of the posts.

 * Well I installed the newest theme and will be starting over with it and see how
   this goes. This is my first time to start actually working with wp but I’m really
   pleased.
