I’m testing the extension JComments in a site with JA Purity 2 template: when I click on the “add comment” link (near the “read more” link, in the category view, to read all the article), the article’s page is showed, but there’s a strange shift of the margin top, and the title (h2) of the article is partially covered.
The problem is similar to this reported in the JComments forum:

http://www.joomlatune.com/forum/index.php/topic,1785.0.html

The problem appears in Firefox, Chrome, IE8 but NO in IE6.
The problem appears only in JA Purity 2, not in other templates (JA Purity 1 works fine, for example).

Has anyone had the same problem?
Did you find a solution?

thanks

If you solve the problem, could you report the solution here?
I mean the CSS changes needed to solve it.

thanks

Hi there. I had exactly the same problem with jcomments, but with different template. After i read another topic i finally solved it, the problem was in my template.css, in main body area in particular. So in template.css, in area “xx_main”, i changed command “overflow: hidden;” to “overflow: visible;”. Now when i’m in joomla blog format, and click “add comment”, the article title is OK and in position. I hope that’s useful.

2 users say Thank You to dtsilog for this useful post

@dtsilog
yes, it seems to work!
changing in templatesja_purity_iicsslayout.css

line 18:

.column { overflow: hidden; float: left; }

in:

.column { overflow: visible; float: left; }

I need to test it well, but it seems to work. Thanks a lot dtsilog!!!

It works in Firefox (3.x and 4.x) and IE 8 (not tested in IE 7), but it causes problems in IE 6; the right column now it’s shifted down.
I can’t try Chrome and Safari at the moment…

You ‘re welcome both. Maybe if you delete the entire command.

From

.column { overflow: hidden; float: left; }

to

.column { float: left; }

I tested and it seems ok in firefox 3, internet explorer 8-9 and chrome.

thanks, but again it doesn’t work in IE 6.
It’s known that IE 6 had some problems with “overflow”.
The fact is that there’s still some traffic from IE 6 (something like 6-7% of users at least), so this is not the best solution at the moment.

thanks

the only solution I’ve found is to filter IE 6 in this way:

.column {
overflow: visible;
_overflow: hidden;
float: left;
}

_overflow SHOULD be seen only by IE 6
