Using Opera there is some huge box below posts...

Post by Wyzer1 »

Just figured I'd let you guys know

For some reason when I use Opera (browser) there is some huge box below everyones post. It doesn't do it in either Firefox or Internet Explorer though

Its approximately 1680 x 1000 Pixels in size, its not my computer....

Not sure if its Opera's fault or something in the forums, but I thought i would bring it to your attention anyways

Heres a cropped screenshot:

Any other Opera users confirm/deny this?

I can confirm it if you want me to :)
It is a problem I ran into when I created this skin. It is a very wierd bug that only occurs in Opera as far as I have noticed.

As for the issue in itself, it is not a box as you put it. Instead it is the horizontal line (<hr>) that separates the post message from the user signature that gets expanded to 625 pixels (or something) high instead of 1px high. I have put limitations on that line that should make it 1pixel high, but it seems to not work properly. Also, while creating the skin, I never touched the codes for that line.

Hence, I have no clue on how to fix it, or why it even appears. If someone who actually knows something about webdesign can figure this one out, feel free to tell me.

I have just been informed that the latest version of Opera solved this issue (I believe it is the 9.5 version). Feel free to try it out and let me know.

Yes! Yes! Yes! :D

I really preferred the older version of Opera for other reasons, but my mouse-arm is very happy now!

(In case you wonder, I am hereby confirming that the Opera 9.5 has resolved the "huge box"-issue.)
