    • Broken pages with simple.css

    Posted by Conrad Rentsch Germany

    Hi @ all,

    there is a strange problem. I have applied simple.css on a tikiwiki 1.9.2 system. Every time when I want to open the tiki-browse_categories.php page, the site becomes totally broken. But only with this theme, all the other ones are working. Take a look at this broken page:

    http://www.cre-world.com/pic/category.jpg

    The same effect occurs on the confirmation dialog page for deleting modules or menus. When I press 'OK delete it' everything is fine again.
    Also strange is that it seems to work here on tikiwiki.org, if you open http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-browse_categories.php with simple.css applied everything is fine.

    So where is the problem, what can I do to fix this?

    Thanks for helping.

    Simple.css uses a divs-only (no-tables) layout for pages. In a complex dynamic site like Tiki, this is vulnerable to breaking when something on a page doesn't respect or over-rides the div it's contained in. At tikiwiki.org, ))PhpLayersmenus are not turned on. These can interfere with simple's layouts. If you want to use simple.css, turn offPhpLayers(( menus for best results.

    I don't know what's going on with the confirmation dialog, but maybe something similar. To fix it, the code for the dialog would have to be looked at and made to conform to the no-tables style. I don't know if simple.css's authors are still developing this theme or if someone else wants to continue it.
