Hi Guys,

I'm trying to make a custom Skin for my wiki (MediaWiki software).
Everything is working fine except the alignment of the 'editbox' on
the 'editmodus'.

You can see it right here:
http://en.full-ops.be/index.php?titl...na&action=edit

It appears always beneath the last menubox on the left.

Where the text on the regular page works just fine:
http://en.full-ops.be/Testpagina

What am I doing wrong? The editbox appears normally when using the
standard MediaWiki skin. Tjis is my current CSS-code : http://en.full-ops.be/CurrentCss

Hope to hear from you soon!

textarea (line 189)
{
width: 100%;
}

Width does not include padding or borders, so the width may actually be
something like 101% with those added, causing it to overflow and slide
under the left column. Try changing the width to 98% and see what happens.

Hi Berg,

Thanks for the reply but the width doesn't seem the problem. I've
tried changing it to 90% but it still stays the same.

Might have something to do with the clear: both in the #toolbar rule. As far
as I can see it's working as specified.

Might also be that the clear causes "toolbar" and subsequent material to
be cleared below the floated "Menu".

Wondering why the @#$% 'editbox', 'editmodus' and 'menubox' are used to
describe the problem when they don't even exist in the markup and
stylesheet?

Er, yes. It was assumed that clear: both does that.

No need to even look at the markup or stylesheet at all. Fire up firebug,
inspect the menu and verify (as suspected) that it is floated, look for and
find something that is causing the rest to be "below" the menu, as in
cleared. Elapsed time, less than it took me to type this paragraph, by an
order of magnitude :-)

Then again we are talking about a google groper here.

Any suggestions that I could try?
