    I guess this is a pretty basic CSS question…

    I’ve been trying to get the top of the side sidebar to connect to the bottom of the ‘pages’ bar, by editing the pool theme ‘style.css’… but I just can’t figure out how to do it :S
    Nothing I change seems to result in that gap closing.

    Here’s an image to help explain what I mean.

    Any ideas?

  • The image isn’t coming up. What we need from you is a link to the site if it’s online and a link to the theme download page.

    From what you’ve given, I can only guess this is a margin or padding problem. Of course, there are other reasons this could happen. It would really help if I could see some code.

    The image works again. (server must have been down)
    Link to my site.
    Link to the theme.

    I also presumed it was a margin or padding problem, but I altered all the margin and padding setting I could find to no avail… :[

    Hope this extra info helps.

    I’m sure I can get it to working. I have too much to do tonight to look at it, but I’ll definitely get to it tomorrow night if no one else gives you a solution.

    Any news?

    Sorry, I forgot all about this. I’m taking final exams this week, but I’ll be in and out while I’m taking studying breaks. I’ll get to it though.

    Well yes and no. It works in Firefox but not in iE… I can’t seem to get the position of the sidebar to work in both browsers… :S any thoughts?

    Sorry to bump this again, but this is driving me nuts.

    So I thought I had solved my sidebar positional issues when I opened my site up in Internet Explorer and discovered that it was broken when viewed in that browser.

    In IE, it seems like there is an extra cell or margin height which has been inserted???
    Here is an image of the extra ‘space’ in need to get rid of. (in red box)

    I added a background image and you can see that it stops at the same height as the sidebar.
    It should in fact, go right up to the bottom of the ‘page bar’.

    I just can’t work out what is causing this extra space and only in IE…

    All this would be so much easier for me to fix if I knew why it works fine in FireFox and doesn’t in Internet Explorer. (and if IE had a DOM inspector like FF ;P)

    Feel free to check out my site in both FireFox and IE.
