Yeah, I've observed that in IE on the college computers for a few weeks? No idea what version it is there though.

Looks fine in Chrome, also.

And fine in Opera.

I've seen this with IE7 before when it decides an element is too wide and will drop it down below other divs (in this case it's dropping it down below the name / member / registered etc. area). You can reproduce this on IE8 by pressing F12 to go into the developer tools and changing the browser mode to IE7 at the top. In quirks mode it doesn't appear as bad so possibly something was fixed to stop IE7 going into quirks mode which means this problem is now visible?
An easy solution is probably to alter the width style of the bbcode_container. If you inspect the element it's pulling in a 100% width from vbulletin-ie.css which isn't being loaded in IE8 (or presumably other browsers). Changing this to 95% seems to do the trick although I haven't actually tested this in IE7 itself.

Seems I've wasted your time: I'd accidently switched on 'Compatability Mode' :nono:
All's well now (weird thing is everything's now fine in or out of compatability mode - being Microsoft, it probably depends on which way the wind's blowing...)
Again: Sorry.

It looks like David's changed the width to 95% in the legacy IE stylesheet so now it's fine in compatibility mode. I don't think you've wasted anyone's time - Fingernail and Ulukai had also seen the problem so it was worth looking into.

Yeah, I fixed it when I found a couple of spare minutes.
Thanks for doing the detective work, Al. Saved me a job ;)

I just noticed that I can't edit posts while using Linux. I tried four different browsers (Opera 10.10 and 10.48, Firefox 3.6, Konqueror 4.3.5) and none of them gave me the "Edit Post" option, yet I tried Firefox 3.5.8 on Vista and it was there... :confused:
OK then, that is weird... Before I posted this I had just logged into the forums on Vista, and as soon as I posted this reply using Opera 10.10/linux I had the "Edit Post" button... :confused: Then I checked Firefox/linux, and it was there also, but it still doesn't show up in Opera 10.48 and Konqueror 4.3.5! :weird: Any ideas???
EDIT again... Apparently Opera 10.48 and Konqueror 4.3.5 had both logged off before I refreshed the page (no idea why), so when I logged back in they now work. I guess the odd thing is that it took me logging in on Vista to get "Edit Post" working on Linux, which makes no sense.

I've tried to rename the title of a thread I started by editing the first post.
While the top of the first post views the new title, the thread title seen on the forum remains the same.
Is this a vBulletin4 issue?

In the forum index, double-click on the blank space next to the thread title. It should allow you to rename it there.
