Newsy: inquiry w/o hope of affirmative reply
-
Rich, think on this, if you will (and when you have time):
would it be possible to shorten the nav#access bar and center it so that it occupied the same space as the header (and everything else) ?
In which case, I am hoping that the space then left behind would be filled by the background pattern, of course …The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

See what you think with this.
#access { width: 1016px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; float: none; } #branding { padding-bottom: 0; } -
FAR OUT !!! – like, POIFICK !!!
Looks totally brilliant, Rich – you are a clever old thing !!
Now, one last small whinge (sorry !): when I go on my nav bar, to CS monthly photo, or to the two weekly challenges in the dropdown under The Daily Post, the right-hand separator becomes a totally full scroll-bar ! Eet ees weird !!! -
M.R., That is a really weird thing and it seems only limited to Chrome. No such issue on Safari, Firefox or on Internet Exploder 10 and 11.
Lemme look into it.

BLOODY Chrome ! – it has SUCH problems, Rich.
I use it because its translation function is incredibly useful to me …
Sorry for your extra trouble, mate – honestly …
And THANK-YOU with a hug for the navbar solution !!! -

Add this and see if it goes away. It appears like it does.
#primary, #sidebar-wide, #sidebar-narrow { overflow-y: visible; } -

Wow, strange on the line going up through the category archives title. The following fixes it though, but check it out and make sure. I’ve applied it only to archive type pages (category, archive and tag).
.archive #content:before { top: 50px; } -
I have to ask this dumb question, Rich – with apologies in advance:
does it matter in what order these CSS changes are applied/entered?
Big horse …
not only do I still see the scrollbar and the line through the archives title, but the latter now also have the scrollbar.
Jesus wept.
Tell you what. I have to go visit my friend The Goanna in hospital, now; so you might as well put it out of your head until tomorrow.
And while I’m gone, you can kick up yore lil heels …
:-D -
Well, you do what you need to do. I’ve worked on it some more and I’m going to have to return to it. It is something that Chrome doesn’t like in the CSS but no other browser seems to have an issue with it. We’ll get it though.
-
Ok, this I think is sort of a hacky way to take care of the scrollbar issue in the content area on categories pages, but it works and doesn’t seem to break anything else as far as I can see. Add this at the bottom of your custom CSS and see what you think.
#content { padding-bottom: 39px; } -
Good grief, Rich – it solves the lot !!
Just some bottom padding !!!!
I am speechless.
Well, no, I’m not (you got your hopes up there for a moment, didn’t you ?); I’m full of gratitude for your cleverness in working out that padding would probably do it, and then how much.
Tell ’em I said you’re worth twice the money, OK?
Your most grateful and oldest fan … -
One question: what is a CSS Tour Guide ?
Are you IT ? – or are there lots of you ?
Why the change of job title?
OKOKOK ! – four questions. So I’m a liar.
Liar schmiar … I still want to know.
:-D -
CSS Tour Guide is just a title dreamed up by three of us. It may change later. My official title is Happiness Engineer.

M.R., I’m not seeing the code from above in your custom CSS anywhere. Add the following at the bottom of your custom CSS.
#content { padding-bottom: 39px; }
