    Hello. I am having a small problem with one of my pages. I have an image gallery that likes to intrude over my one sidebar. This makes the gallerys rather unusable. I have tried myself for a couple of hours to figure this one out, but I have not figured it out. Of course, CSS isn't my strong point.

    The CMS is Drupal, and the gallery module is AcidFree. The problem lies in the template sidebar.

    Thank you in advance for any help - I really appreciate it!

    Hello

    I appreciate you all looking at it for me so far....

    I have changed the gallery plugin somewhat. Now the issue is this: IE will work ok... when the table runs out of room, do to low resolution such as 800x600 or whatever, it displays the table below the sidebar. That is a bit of a problem, but not of huge importance yet.

    The main problem is that in Firefox, whatever version, once you shrink the window, the table which holds the images begins to cover the sidebar. Here is an image to demonstrate the problem below:

    Ok, now start making the window smaller, to simulate someone viewing with 800x600 resolution. You should get approximately what I show there in firefox....

    I have suspicions about the cause, but with seventy-eleven stylesheets and no organization that I could see, I couldn't find the selectors of interest.

    It doesn't help that the structure of the page is obscured by the deep nesting of divs and table elements. That right column is seven deep in the DOM! It should be a child or grandchild of the top wrapper.

    In your own interests, I suggest you clean up the html and organize the stylesheet(s). The other Drupal based sites I've seen were very clean; I'm surprised this is so messy for such a simple layout.

    cheers,

    gary
