Hi everyone,

I am making a new website for a small company, founded by students. A web designer adapted JA Purity to our needs. Now I’m adding the content to the website.

Just before starting I already had a problem, but it got solved using this thread: http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/alignment-problem-with-purity-and-ie-8/

Now I have a new problem. I was adding content and everything went fine, but when I added a menu on the left side of the page, lines were appearing on the left and right-hand side of the page. I added a screenshot so it would be clear. It just seems like the lines are made of the same pieces of shade that is used under the horizontal navigation menu. This is a link to the site: http://joomla.afcleuven.be/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4&Itemid=4 . I am using joomla 1.5.14.

Thank you very much for your help, I appreciate it a lot !!

Kind regards,

Brecht

hi…

i think this line

#ja-containerwrap-fr {
background: url(images/cw-bg2.gif) repeat-y 50% 0;
}

in this file
/templates/AFC/styles/background/lighter/style.css

i think it needs to be changed to

#ja-containerwrap-fr {
background: url(images/cw-bg2.gif) no-repeat 50% 0;
}

Thanks prbalge,

Yes, that should solve the problem. I can confirm the solution given by prbalge.

Hi prbalge and drarvindc,

This indeed solved a part of the problem, but is isn’t completely solved:

-In IE8 the shaded parts are gone, but now it is replaced with a light grey colour. The same as the background of the page, but lighter than the colour of the menu.
-In Firefox 3.5 the problem stays the same.

This is again the link to the site (with the adaptations): http://joomla.afcleuven.be/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4&Itemid=5

Thanks again for your help !!

OPen your style.css line 184

<blockquote>#ja-container {
background: url(images/c-bg1.gif) repeat-y 18% 0;
}</blockquote>
to
[php]
#ja-container {
background: url(images/c-bg1.gif) no-repeat 18% 0;
}[/php]Use ctrl+F5 to force reload your browser page (in firefox). So that you can evaluate the changes.

Let us know if this works.

regards

Arvind

Hi,

In IE8: The light grey line now runs over the whole page from left to right.
In Firefox: The problem stays the same.

Thanks for the quick responses,

Brecht

Hi,

Drarvindc, I changed your last adaptations back to the previous ones. It didn’t work and the grey of the left menu stretched all over the site.
So now I’m back to the point after Prbalge’s adaptations. I added a screenshot with what is still wrong for the moment.

Thanks for the help,

Kind Regards,

Brecht

Hi afcleuven,

I have already requested JA Developer to help you out on this. However, it seems that he is not keeping well today. He shall get back to you asap.

regards

Arvind

Hi,

I don’t know how, but while I was editting content on the website, the last part of my problem (the light grey lines) suddenly disappeared .

Miracles are possible :p
