Anybody got any WordPress CSS suggestions?

Posted on June 20th, 2009

Anybody have any WordPress CSS suggestions? I’m having a bit of some difficulty with my site theme. In IE8, when navigating between blog posts and pages the site “jerks” quickly to the right then left when you go back to the homepage. Not sure what is causing this issue. Seems the site looks different in IE7 too but.

Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

    I think the problem is with the ‘overflow’ property. as your site dynamically loads the content, it doesn’t need the scroll bar for the first split second, hence the shift right, then it does need it once the sidebar and other content loads, hence the shift right.

    with IE8 if you add ‘overflow:scroll’ to your CSS within the ‘html { }’, it should always display the scroll bars, eliminating the shifts. the downside is that you always have the scroll bars there even when all the content fits within the browser window.

    give it a shot, and let me know if it works.
