To whomever has access to the CSS files

It appears that the layout.css files are missing one simple line. The layout.css files to be edited are at include/themes/*themename*/layout.css

There is one simple line of code missing.

For example, the Green Grass CSS file at forums.anandtech.com/include/themes/greengrass/layout.css



Where it says
#Forums .BoxContent {
padding:0px;
}

needs to be
#Forums .BoxContent {
padding:0px;
overflow:hidden;
}


Edit #3498
In CSS file at forums.anandtech.com/include/themes/greengrass/skin.css
.BoxContent
{
border-left:0px solid #ccc;
border-right:0px solid #ccc;
border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
background-color:#fefefe;
padding:6px 6px 6px 6px;
}
Should be:
.BoxContent
{
border-left:1px solid #ccc;
border-right:1px solid #ccc;
border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
background-color:#fefefe;
padding:6px 6px 6px 6px;
}







Also, I found a few other differences between the code in the default theme and the others.. one such is (in layout.css):
#NavPane{
width:200px;
float:left;
}
and
#NavPane{
width:200px;
float:left;
overflow:auto;
}

However, changing this doesn't seem to have any visible effect as far as I can tell.



FireFox users can use the Stylish extension and this style to fix it in the mean time.

I already PMed Derek about another css issue but I don't think he has access to any of the files.

I think I recall him saying he doesn't have access, but I wasn't sure who else I could PM this to so I hope that by posting it the issue will be addressed by whoever can edit the files.

I hope there is a fix. It seems a little strange that on a monitor with 1680 horizontal solution there's a scrollbar! Overall, I'm really disappointed with the changes.

Given Fusetalk's average turnaround time on bug fixes, I predict this bug will be fixed by 2009.

A tad optimistic there.

:( It's not even something the Fusetalk people need to take care of. Simply editing the CSS files in notepad or vim or any text editor is all that's required.

I wish I had access to the server. I would have all these bugs fixed in a few hours and I'd do it for free.

Who else here has that kind of access?

Loke could probably hook you up, though he's not real welcome around here anymore.
