not on Firefox or Chrome… let me take a look with IE… if that is the case, gonna come down to theme leakage from your wp theme… there is not a general issue with sp and IE…

also note that you are running an old version of SP… any reason not to upgrade to the latest?

and yes, I see the problem on IE…

I was just looking at the page and it moved over where it was cutting off the left…when I refreshed the page it's cutting off the right again.  And no…I'm not nuts, that was yesterday.

 

What would cause it not to fit in the space?  And what would cause it to shift like that?

We have had issues with some elements of the site and haven't got around to upgrading.  I'm worried we will create some issues.  Can't take any more headaches right now.

Just installed SP but had to use this version because of the WP version that we are using.  Haven't updated WP.

not entirely sure what it doesnt like about your theme (or might be old latent issue fixed in current version) but there appears to some fixes you can try…

in simple-forum/styles/skins/sf-framework.css, for stylings of sfmessagestrip, sfblock and sfloginstrip and change their width declarations to be 100% instead of auto…

why not working?  good question for IE devs – why they wont follow standards is beyond me…  already have to have too much special code just for IE in there…  looks great in the other browsers…  and likely related to your theme somehow as generally speaking IE works okay with sp…  hard to tell as the developer tools for working with IE are no where as good as they are for FF or the other browsers, so pretty hard to debug whats IE is doing…

as I also said, might be related to the old version you are running…
