Hello !

I have a layout problem with G2:
While browsing the gallery the displayed albums/pictures are placed to the page bottoms if the browser window's with is somehow too small. The page main area is emptied and white and i have to scroll down to see the actual content.
On the legt the navigation pane is still visible. I feel not comfortable with this effect and new users may get confused and could think that there are no images since they cannot see them until they scroll down.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here's the link to my "problem gallery" ;)

Chris

it's a known issue for internet explorer. you shouldn't use internet explorer anyway, you kow ;)
but of course it's not acceptable and we're working on it.

For me the problem was the album select being too wide. In modules/albumselect/templates/AlbumSelect.tpl I added

STYLE="width: 180px"

after

class="giActionSelect"

Probably the right thing to do would be to set this in the CSS file, but this is a temporary solution that works for most modern browsers.

i have completed a large scale tpl/css refactor which, among other things, resolves the problem of content wrapping below the sidebar in IE.
