    Ok, solved the problem. Apparently, the “content” div was “overflowing” causing it to extend beyond the limit of 795px set by the style sheet. Adding the “overflow: hidden” fixed the problem in IE.

    But, remember, it can’t be that easy. Once that “fix” was implemented, the problem in IE was now occuring in Firefox!! ARRRGH!! I was forced to employ a cheap CSS hack to have Firefox use one class and have IE use another.

    Thus, for example, if you are using #content {overflow: hidden} for IE (which causes layout probs in firefox) add the SAME class again but in this manner:

    html>body #content {overflow: hidden}

    The “html>body” portion is not recognized by IE thus ignored. Firefox recognizes both but will always use the second class if two are provided.

    In summary, problem solved… sort of.

    Search.php does exist, it has a normal loop.

    Hmm, I don’t quite understand, I never altered by search.php when I filtered out the category in index.php. What am I missing here?

    Joebar,

    As far as the hover text-decoration, and assuming you actually do use the h1 class, my css is as follows:

    h1.entrytitle {
    text-decoration:none;
    [place whatever styles you want here, i.e. color]
    }

    Then, look through the templates where the post title is being called and change it to something like:

    <h1 class=”entrytitle” … </h1>

    As far as resolution, I’d stick with a max of 800×600 unless you know for a fact you’d be dealing with the more sophisticated visitor. My stats show 40% youse 1024, 15% 800 with the remainder going higher than that. You have to do the lowest common denominator kind of thing.

    Good luck.

    I’m stupid, I posted the following in the wrong topic….

    Sorry for the delay! I reviewed your site and it is indeed very nice (and yes you seem just as anal as me). I really like the “footer” on each of your entries, e.g. the category, mail post, comments, etc. So much so it inspired me to finally do something about mine because I was putting it off for so long.

    One thing I noticed is you don’t have your feeds set off. Perhaps a seperate heading in your sidebar would let people know the various feeds you offer. Perhaps a button?

    Now this is being really anal, but perhaps you could change the hover style of your post titles so they don’t underline when the cursor is over them, you really don’t need that.

    How about a friendlier 404 page? See mine: http://mayurpatel.org/asdf1234

    No navigation bar?

    And I’m sure this is something you plan on doing but promote promote promote.

    Nice job!

    Believe it or not, a lot of friends I’ve told about the site were like its great but the article’s kinda just stop and you’re left hanging… apparently, no one (at least my friends) realize there is more to the article despire the glaring “CLICK HERE TO READ ON…” so the animated gifs have really helped. Same with the Extra! Extra!, people go right past it.

    I’m starting off on the wrong foot, here’s a link (duh):

    Another thing, is there a way to reorder the way the post is placed? For example, right now, clicking “press it” in FF places the pages hyperlink followed by the highlighted text. Is there a way to place the text first and then the link?

    I’m actually using explorer (shame on me, I know) but I suppose it is not working in IE. I’ve been searching for bookmarklet code for other items around the net but I see that the code to place highlighted text is already in the wordpress code. I’m using 1.5.1.2 (only because I have edited core files and don’t feel like figuring out which ones I changed).

    I just tried in FF and you are right, it works fine. Hmmm… so it doesn’t work at all for IE?

    Thanks Kafka, I’ll try that out. What about for the other feeds? i.e. wp-rss, wp-rdf, wp-atom

    Excellent question, I’m interested so I am bumping this one! HELP!
