Strange thing happening with different computers

Carolyn 04 Oct, 2010
I have 7 forms on the site. Four of which I did and three were done by someone else. They all look good on my computers with IE7 (XP), IE8 (Win7), and Foxfire 3.6 on both computers.

On the computers in the church office, the forms appear with the first item of input and a large 6 to 7 paragraph spacing between the first input line and the next. I'm not sure what to do about this. I did a quick look for fixes and saw none (could have missed something.)

I was unaware of this occurrence until today, when it was brought to my attention. Anyone else had a problem with this? Is there a solution?

Thanks and God bless.

Hi Carolyn,

What browser is on the church computers? IE6 by any chance?

This can be caused by the height:auto setting in the ChronoForms CSS, or sometimes by an overwide element on the page, by an unclosed div, or a CSS clear setting that isn't working quite as it should. I'd guess that the height:auto is he most likely here.

I have the Chronoforms Cookbook and read in it that the default CSS might not be appropriate when it causes large breaks in the text. I transformed one form and had someone in the office check and it did the trick, however, my tooltips are now a small block of text under the input box which works okay.

And in answer to your question, it was IE 7 and 8 at the office and I think one IE6. But this was an easy fix, just unexpected on my part.

Thanks and God bless.

Hi Carolyn,

Great - good to hear that it's fixed.
