I found similar problem, but regarding height, here http://drupal.org/node/212674.

Now, how can I fix width of advanced forums in IE's last version. I downloaded IE just today, I guess should be 7th version. Can't look at it now, not at my laptop, where I witnessed this problem with width.

You can adjust the width in your theme. Beyond that, I don't know what to tell you... This is a CSS question, and CSS isn't my forte.

I think I'm seeing the same issue.

After switching to alpha8 and correcting the "height: %1" to "height: 1%" everything looks great in IE6 except that the posts are incredibly wide. The forum listings are all the correct width, the user data (comment-left) is the correct size and looks fine, but the post itself is padded with many (horizontal) pages of empty space on both sides.

I haven't yet tracked down why this is happening, but I think it's the same thing yngens is describing.

It looks perfect in Firefox.

I was seeing this problem with alpha9, but have just changed the 1% back to "height: %1". This now looks fine in IE.
What have I broken by undoing that fix?

I have the same problem. I just updated my Advanced Forum, and now the posts are way too wide in IE7. They are all correct in Firefox 3.x and 2.x and Safari 3.x. Help Needed.

@rallycivic: where did you change the %1 thing, in what file?
