I'm testing drupal 6.x-dev using IE6. When I visit any of the following pages, most of the table content is off the right hand side of the page:

  • admin/build/themes
  • admin/build/modules
  • admin/build/actions/manage

If I resize the window, the content disappears further off to the right. This happens when using all of the core themes. I haven't tried using any other browser.

I'm no themer, so I have no idea why this happens.

I've attached a screenshot of the page layout before the window is resized.

At what resolution are you looking at the page? Which theme are you using?

these kind of things help us to make things fit.

My screen resolution is 1280 x 1024.
I see the same error using ALL of the core themes.

I've now also noticed the same problem on admin/content/types.

Your using IE 6?

My guess is that it has something todo with tables and setting their width to 100%, not sure yet...

Yeah, I know, why would anyone want to use IE6? But I'm forced to use it at work! :(

I've visited the equivilant pages of my drupal 5.1 installation using the same machine and browser. There are no issues with this.

I also tested both sites (6.x-dev and 5.1) with Firefox (unfortunately on a different machine) and again there were no page layout issues.

I had the same problems on IE6, it's caused by the sticky header added by tableheader.js
I patched the garland's fix-ie.css adding the following lines:

thead div.sticky-header {
display: none;
}
.warning {
height: 100%;
}

(the second one fixes a bug with the warning message).

Sticky table headers have been disabled in IE 6.
