Issue with loading form as module in IE6 (size / layout)

hanshubertus 08 May, 2009
Hi,
I tested to create a form and use it as a request form.
It all works fine. The form/module is shown as a module/menue on the right side of the website (below a module for time zones).
If I load the site the width of the module is as big as the with of the other modules (170px).
However, in IE6, every time I minimize or change to another window and then come back to the website the size of the chronoform module is twice as big. Only that module.
I checked the differen css styles of chronoform, but could not detect the issue.
Can you please advice?
Thank!
Hans

To add:
I checked all css styles in com_chronocontact/themes/default/css and other folders, but could not detect the issue 😟

See modified CSS:
/*body, ul, form, div, input, select { margin:0px; padding:0px;}*/

div#form_element {
behavior: url(hoverie.htc);
}


/*-----------Form Styles--------------*/

.form_item {
 /*border:1px #CCCCCC solid;*/
 display:block;
 padding:0px!important;
 margin-top:0px;

}

.form_element {
	font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size:12px;
	float: left;
	margin-left:0px;
	margin-top:0px;
	margin-bottom:2px;
}

.form_element label {
	width:150px;
	display: block;
	float: none;
	line-height: 22px;
	vertical-align: middle;
}
.form_element .check_label {
	width:150px;
	float:none;
	display:inline;
	line-height: 22px;
	vertical-align: middle;
}
.form_element .radio_label {
	width:150px;
	float:none;
	display:inline;
	line-height: 22px;
	vertical-align: middle;
}

.form_element select, .form_element input {
	width:150px;
	font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size:12px;
	
}

.delete_icon { float:right; /*border-left:1px #CCCCCC solid; padding:10px;*/}

.delete_icon1 { float:right; border-left:1px #CCCCCC solid; border-bottom:1px #CCCCCC solid; padding:10px;}

.button { text-align:center; border:none; margin-top:10px; }

.no_delete { border:none;}

.cf_button1 {
	width:70px!important;
	height:20px!important;
}



.radio { width:20px!important;}

.float_left { float:left;}
.clear { clear:both; font-size:0px; line-height:0px;}

.width1 { width: auto;}

Hi Hans,

I've no idea and don't remember seeing this reported before. Please can you post a link to the page where this happens.
ChronoForms has a separate css file for IE6 - but the problem could be from css in another template css file that also affects the elements in your form.

Hi Bob,
I created a temporary user for you:
<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.kh-investments.de">www.kh-investments.de</a><!-- w -->
user: temp
pwd: bob
The site is a prototype and not live, yet.
Thanks,
Hans

Hi Hans,

try to transform your form to the theme1 style which may fix it, or you can make a mini form for this module using your css or the theme1!

Cheers
