MetaChat is broken. The left column is overtaking the middle column, at least in IE. I say this only in case no one has noticed/complained/whatever yet.

I see the right column doing the overtaking. In IE.

Yes. By "left" I actually meant "right."

Sorry.

it was doing this in Opera this AM but I tend to blame those sorts of things on Opera being Opera. Now that I see it in IE here at work tho, on review - yes, that do get a tad bit disconcerting.

I see it, too.

It looks like this in case anyone needs a visual aid.

I thought it was on purpose to scare us. Boo!

Mine actually has the entirety of the two columns overlapping, but that's probably because I don't have the window maximized. (Because, of course, if my work is visible in the background, then I am officially working and not procrastinating.)

The [More] tag is malformed in essexjan's To Pop or Not To Pop post.

Mine looks fine.

It was me. I did it.

Boo.

Does anyone know when it started? Did it only start happening today?

I guarantee it is from the malformed {more} tag in essexjan's post, which currently looks like it belongs to mcgraw.

~~Ha, ha, suck it IE users~~. Damn, it's now happening in Safari. Started a couple of minutes ago for me, although I've been on Firefox for the last hour and a bit.

posted by TheDonF 31 October | 15:29

Yes, it started happening right about when the post sciurus is talking about went up.

posted by occhiblu 31 October | 15:36

YAY! Fixed.

Thank you, kids! It was because of the "more" tag thingy. I never would have figured that out... It looked like there was /div missing, so I was checking and rechecking for that kind of thing. I could have been doing that for the next six hours.
