I'm trying to get the Stark theme (Druplal 7.26) to work (hours and hours on it). I tried both the bartik theme and the seven theme - but too many parts on it that I would have to change.
So far I have it set up as just header, content and footer (what I wanted - no sidebars at all).
I made a sub-theme, copied the info file, page.tp.php, did all that (changed the appropriate names), followed the instructions, etc. It's maybe 70% finished.
However, somewhere in the drupal files it mentions that the stark theme is prone to "breaking" (maybe an understatement?).
Seems next to impossible to control heights of various objects (say an a small image, a piece of text, etc.) I place in the footer or header.
I've tried all sorts of things; div, span, ems, pixels, clear-hack, you name it.
Same things goes for an Article vs. a Basic Page, and the Admin view is different too.
Is it just Stark?

That's the second time you've stated the above. The first time was in a very similar thread that you posted. I can't find verbiage to that effect in any drupal file. Care to enlighten?
Stark is HTML and CSS as are all themes in Drupal. However, stark is considered a minimal theme. I've never had any trouble with the issues you mention. I highly suggest adding a link to the site so that the HTML and CSS can be inspected.
Different from what? stark isn't an admin theme. Seven is the admin theme.
Stark and Seven
Hi,
Thanks,
OK, that explains one thing, Admin is Seven, outside of that it's Stark. So I'm looking at it in 2 different themes.
'stark theme is prone to "breaking"" I found in a 'read me' file in the Stark files, the theme folder I think. I just wanted to know if the general height problem is peculiar to Stark.

the following quoted from the stark theme readme.txt
As shown there isn't any statement about being prone to breaking.
