[solved] strange behaviour with all non-moz-browsers

[unleash_it]

hello dear joomla-friends,

update and note - i will sign the thread as fixed and solved - thanks to the friendly and very su supportive kanor - he deserves a monster congratulation...

i have a very strange behaviour on my page

running beez 05
but getting the same error with other templates too

the site: http://www.literaturen.org

running:
book library from ordasoft.com -see the left collumn with the top-books block

it looks strange:

it has a strange issue, I'm using Safari 5 and the Booklibrary top 10 module from left
it's not correctly displayed. Take a look at this screen I've made: http://i.imgur.com/9pfOG3f.png

note; i get this error with all non-mozilla-browsers


what causes this error?

[kanor]

well thats just your content overflowing
the td is stretched because of

Code: Select all

exegetischer/psychoanalytischer/philosophischer

get some spaces in there and you should be fine

[unleash_it]

hello dear Kanor

many many thanks for the hint. That is just overwhelming. I love it!

Well by the way: How do you think i should get in those spaces!?
i wonder.... !?

But i will try to find a way: I will try it out.

If you can give me some more hints...!? It would be great!

In Advance: Many many thanks for all you did!

well the site appears to be down so could not test this code, but i think you can try to give the table a fixed layout with widths defined for the tds and word-wrap on the tds might help

Code: Select all

table-layout:fixed;
word-wrap:break-word;

wrt inserting the spaces, m not sure where the module gets it data from, if its just the titles of some articles or products i guess you can manually edit them from the backend and add the spaces

hello dear kanor

good day - happy to hear from you!!

i managed to bring back the site again. Well we can do a test with FireBug - what do you think!?


look forward - many many greetings

hey
i tried the code and it seems to be working on my chrome
did u get a chance to try it?

[unleash_it]

hi dear kanor

great to hear from you.

no not yet

struggle with the FireBug here

how am i able to appy this fix!?

a. with FireFox
b. within the Book-Library-extension ( in the configurations)

or within the template code?

[kanor]

hey there, i see that the table uses the common moduletable class and having no idea is its possible to apply a suffix from the backend to this module, i think we may have to use html override for this

if you are able to give the inner table a class, lets say books-list, then you can add this css

Code: Select all

table.books-list {table-layout:fixed}
table.books-list td {width:80%; word-wrap:break-word}
table.books-list td + td {width:20%}

you may have to modify the code depends on the browsers you are looking to support

[unleash_it]

hello dear kanor

many many thanks.
well if i got you right i have to apply this code to the css-file-

to a certain css-file!?

Again many many thanks i will try to do it and come back and report all the findings

greetings

[kanor]

yes you can add that to beez5.css [or any of the included css files]
but before that you will need to modify the template of the Booklibrary top 10 module and give the table a class of "books-list"

[unleash_it]

hello dear kanor

many many thanks for the reply - i currently prepare a file that can replace the beez05 css-file.
But i d o not know how to do the corrections / settings / fixes in the admin-area of the book-library.

i have sent you a pm with some more details...

if you can give a helping hand i would be glad.

in the meantime i prepare the file - and will get ready to upload it - if you give the okay.

greetings

hello dear kanor

ahhhh - now i see the option for uploading the files. i tried out to send you the
files that you want.... but the joomla-mail-system does not allow tar nor zip-files,

so i tried another solution see below

i created two versions tar.gz and zip - choose one of the following

the Download-Links


http://netload.in/dateifyz6lJyrQJ/mod_b ... tar.gz.htm

http://netload.in/dateivDKyo0vr9n/mod_b ... 10.zip.htm

i reallly look forward to hear from you

many many greetings

[kanor]

have provided a modified php file, kindly replace the one in mod_booklibrary_top10 with the new one, remember to backup the original file

next thing is to add the css

[unleash_it]

hello dear kanor -

many many thanks for the support -
i am downtown in a internet-cafe - and do not have access to the server via ftp,
but later the evening i will have access again - then i will replace the files of the book-library-top-ten

i will notify you when i am done with it.

meanwhile many many greetings

Hello dear Kanor, good evening

first of all - many thanks for all you did!

i took the file from here:

http://netload.in/dateiVh2zqJMnD7/mod_b ... di.zip.htm


i uploaded it to the site http://www.literaturen.org

see what / which file i have put there - see the code

http://pastebin.de/33596

relsults: with the mozilla it looks good. with konquerer it looks as damaged as before

the next steps:
well after that i did the following instructions.

at the bottom of beez5.css add the following code and upload it onto the server

Code: Select all

table.books-t10 {table-layout:fixed;}
table.books-t10 td {word-wrap:break-word;}

relsults: with the mozilla it looks good. with konquerer it looks as damaged as before

to make sure that i did what you adviced - i pasted the last few lines of the beez5.css - file here

http://pastebin.de/33597


dear kanor -what can we do now-. i am pretty sure that we are able to fix the things...


i look forward to hear from you

greetings

m srry but there was a mistake made by me in the file i sent
kindly make this change

Code: Select all

mod_booklibrary_top10.php - line 51

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="moduletable" width="100%" class="books-t10">

to

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="moduletable books-t10" width="100%">

[unleash_it]

Hello dear kanor - you guy rock!!!!

update and note - i will sign the thread as fixed and solved - thanks to you dear kanor - you
deserve a monster congratulation...


you found the bug - and had an excellent idea to work around:

id did the replacde in the file mod_booklibrary_top10.php - line 51

from

Code: Select all

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="moduletable" width="100%" class="books-t10">

to

Code: Select all

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="moduletable books-t10" width="100%">

and now it works like a charme - i testet it with the browsers

-mozilla
-konquerer

[by the way - perhaps some can test it with microsoft explorer or safari!?

and it runs very very good - no bugs and no nasty views in the view of the side collumn with the display of the top10 books.


many many thanks - have a great day.

best regards
greetings
