    Default Issue with extra space at bottom with sidebox on

    I have turned on the "specials" sidebox on the right hand side. It is the scrolling sidebox with the marquee. When I turn it on, there's about 2 inches of extra space at the bottom of the page before the footer shows. I've looked through my stylesheet for extra padding/margins/etc, and can't seem to find where this extra space is showing up at?

    Another question, with this same scrolling specials sidebox, is that even though I have the heading for it defined as "Specials" it keeps showing up as a link that reads "Specials [MORE]" and just looks kinda ugly that way with my layout. Where do I find the bit of code that is telling it to do that?

    Thanks

    I looked at it in IE6&7, NS8, FF 1.5&2, and Opera and did not see your issue

    Default Re: Issue with extra space at bottom with sidebox on

    Hi. I found the issue with the [MORE] part of the "Specials" box.

    But in Mozilla, when you look at the home page, from the bottom border of the center column where the main page text is, to the text in the footer, there is a 2 inch gap. When the Specials box is turned off, or when a different box that doesn't have the marquee is turned on, there is no gap. The "Specials" box does not extend down below the main content border, so I don't know why there is that gap between the page content and the footer text/images. It is only in Mozilla, at "text-zoom, 100%" and changing the text zoom to a larger zoom makes it look right, but at 100% it has a gap.

    It's not a huge issue, but just a nit-picky one that I am grumbling about... LOL

    I don't have the straight mozzilla but FF is based upon it.

    I'm not sure what I changed but it's fixed... lol... I just ignored it for a bit and worked on some of the other layout problems and something I did in the course of making those changes fixed it...
