Hi there,
i just installed Firefox 3.0 and when checking the site I maintain, I noticed that the bottom-line of news is not displayed correctly.
On the german support site you can find a screenshot of this problem:

Does anybody know a quick fix? It doesn't look nice at all...
Thanks

Yes I did.

Adding the suggested code doesn't change anything. Removing the table width 100% is not possible - it ruins the whole page.

I guess I'll have to change the theme sooner or later.

The infobar and infobar2 styles are identical except for border widths left/right.

The "style='display:block"-entry doesn't change anything.

I figured so far that it has sth to do with the category image.

As changkarwing said, the text flows to the right. If the infobar ends below the category image the floating fits the news-box an everything looks nice.
If it's just a one-line-news-entry with a category image selected, it floats "over" the right border...

I haven't figured a good fix yet...

That looks quite alright to me...

If IE (I guess you mean that browser) shows it alright then it must be a bug in FF.
Just checked that and in IE7 it look's fine. Must be an FF3 bug then...

Here is the mentioned part out of the theme.css:

.infobar2 {
background-color:#E8EDF0;
font-size:11px;
color:#0D6298;
border-top: solid #D2D2E1;
border-top-width: 1px;
border-left: solid #D2D2E1;
border-left-width: 0px;
border-right: solid #F6F6F6;
border-right-width:1px;
border-bottom: solid #F6F6F6;
border-bottom-width:1px;
padding:3px 4px 3px 4px;
}

I really appreciate your inputs! Thanks!

I thinks it's this line that causes the problem: "echo "<td align='right' class='infobar2'>""

Can you post the CSS class infobar2 (in theme.css) here...

It definitely appeared with Firefox3. That other popular browser shows the line correctly.
Here are the lines out of the theme.php that render the news-infobar (I suppose there is something wrong here, but I'm not good enough in php to fix it myself):

echo "<table width='100%' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'><tr>";
echo "<td class='infobar'><img src='".THEME."images/bullet.gif'> ";
echo "".$locale['040']."<a href='profile.php?lookup=".$info['user_id']."'>".$info['user_name']."</a> ";
echo "".$locale['041'].showdate("longdate", $info['news_date'])."</td>";
echo "<td align='right' class='infobar2'>";
echo "".($info['news_ext'] == "y" ? "<a href='news.php?readmore=".$info['news_id']."'><b>".$locale['042']."</b></a> <b>·</b>\n" : "")."";
if ($info['news_allow_comments'])
echo "<a href='news.php?readmore=".$info['news_id']."'>".$info['news_comments'].$locale['043']."</a> <b>·</b> ";
echo "".$info['news_reads'].$locale['044']." <b>-</b> ";
echo "<a href='print.php?type=N&amp;item_id=".$info['news_id']."'><img src='".THEME."images/printer.gif' alt='".$locale['045']."' style='vertical-align:middle;border:0px;'></a>";
echo "</td></tr></table></div></td>";

Could you give an exact link...? http://www.augsburg-host.de/news.php ?
I browsed quickly around some ten sites with different themes but could not see any errors at first glance.
Is that theme modded? It seems you have the same problem in different themes since when I browsed your site you had the same error with another, dark, theme.

Please observe that there have been little or no possibility to test themes against FF 3, however it should not be any significant change in the rendering. AFAIK.
