I thought I would start another thread regarding this issue with my installation of firefox.

When resizing a gallery window (using the Smugmug style) the featured photo appears below the thumbnails rather than to the right. Especially when the window is widened to full screen (I use a wide screen display).

I had tried a number of things to get rid of this problem, but the one that worked.... uninstalling and reinstalling firefox add-ons, no longer works. :dunno

Any suggestions. Other people using firefox don't seem to be having these problems with my galleries.

What addons, toolbars, sidebars and such do you have open? Let's have a full screen grab with all your browser showing, so we can help? Thanks!

The problem is rather inconsistent. Sometimes it does not occur and other times I can hardly get a correct display. The problem can occur logged in or not. Today wide screen view seems to work fine, but a narrower view causes a problem. It seems that on resizing something is getting "stuck".... just not kicking that image back over to the right.

I thought I uploaded the shots but? Where are they? Try again. Here is the norml view...

with the sidebar closed it was having the same problems... today that is working. :scratch

However, I think this may all be partially related to the use of cntl-+ and cntl-- to resize text (in FireFox). I just noticed that if I reset the text size (View=>zoom=>reset) then everything seems to work fine. This may be the source of the problem since I often use the cntl-+ control when viewing web sites.

That will do it, as it will affect the math that our Sorcerers do when you resize the browser window.
