FFXIclopedia talk:ProblemReports/10237

This is an explanation, at the request of Charitwo, of the formatting error that exists in the current revision of the FFXIwiki Main Page. The above image is of the revision, done on 28 May 2008 by Charitwo at 03:23. This is the last good revision of the Main Page that does not exhibit the error that I will explain below. The error started with the revision done on 28 May 2008 by Gahoo at 18:23 as shown in the following image: You can see in the above image how the graphic from the left column runs over into the column to the right of it. You will also notice how the Welcome Banner no longer stretches across the full length of the window This error continues all the way through the current revision of the Main Page, as shown below: A user can correct the image overrun issue, but only by manually resizing their entire web browser window to stretch the size of the left column so the image doesn't overrun into the column to the right of it, as shown below (but notice how the Welcome Banner is still locked relative to the size of the left column): When I looked through the underlying code for the current revision and all prior revisions back until the last good revision, I noticed that the code for the Welcome Banner was moved from the top of the codeblock to around the middle/bottom of the codeblock (I don't think screenshots of this are necessary but if required, I will provide them as well). I believe that the movement of this code made the dimensions of the Welcome Banner be locked relative to the size of the left column, instead of relative to the size of the entire browser window. This also caused the size of the right column to not be "locked" relative to the size of the two columns and let the graphic spill over into the right column instead of the left column always resizing relative to the size of the graphic and the right column resizing relative to the size of the left column (short and simple, the two columns are governing their own sizes now, instead of the size of the Welcome Banner being the 100% width needed for the two columns to be able to reference off of) Admins, please let me know if you still have questions regarding this error. I will be of any assistance that you require of me. -- 07:26, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
