I'm using acquia marina with firefox 3 and views.
If i add a page view and hover over the admin links (hidden links to edit the view) a horizontal scrollbar is being triggered into nothing.

I addressed this issue to the views maintainer, but seems like garland does it right.

Indeed if i change views.css as pointed out in the patch it works perfectly in FF3.
From my point of view i don't understand why the scrollbar is triggered with 95%, since an outer box is containing a strict limit of width.

So i hope you can reproduce this issue and at least lead me on the way to provide you a patch... Thanks!

I saw the same thing. #317724: horizontal scrollbar has a one-line fix for this problem. If the problem's in your main content area, add this line to your local.css file:

#content { position: relative; }

I haven't looked to see what I'd need to call to apply it to the sidebar, but I'm guessing it's equally simple.

For now I've got this line in my local.css file, but I think it would be good to roll this change into acquia_marina proper.

This is fixed and available in release 6.x-1.4

Added position:relative to #content
Thanks domesticat!

NO! This fix is BAD! It breaks blocks in IE6.

@jwolf - crap. We don't have IE6 in-house, so that was a browser I couldn't test. :(

I'll post a note about it in the other thread where I got the idea from.

It's probably not an issue for other themes. This is theme specific - it only happens w/ Marina.

I'm struggling w/ this theme and IE also....

Please take a peak: http://avalonvillage.org/superclean

In IE7 on Vista, the top tabs float upwards.

In IE6 on Windows 2000, the left block bullet points are totally stretched and screwed up.

IE7 for XP is better but the first block is a little screwy w/ the list/bullet alignment.

I tried the fix above, didn't do anything.

OK. I gave this more than a cursory look.

This is not theme specific. This affects all themes with a fixed page width.
I have posted my findings to the Views issue @ http://drupal.org/node/335599#comment-1167378

Thanks domesticat for your efforts.

@miro_dietiker - please, in the future, check other themes (besides Garland) before filing a bug report against a specific theme.

@jboeger - file a separate support request if you need help; you're OT my friend.

Add position: relative to #main-wrapper

jwolf, you are a star.

I was having a problem where my site worked fine, but when I mouse hovered over an embedded view or view in a block, I would get a horizontal browser scroll bar.

It worked properly in garland theme, so I knew it was my theme, but couldn't figure it out.

I added
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;

to my main container and the problem was fixed!!

I spent hours trying to figure that out.
