i may be just p***ing in the wind, however, I do recall a
bug in mozilla/ff itself where the content width is invalid
under most conditions.. mayhapse there is contentwidth being
used, or the autoresize thingy, in which case I would not
expect it to work in ff correctly.

Hoever, FF renders CSS better (and mor consitantly) than any
other browser I have worked which may explain why it's okay
when you set the style class.

cheers

Umm, where's the screenshot?  In any case...

Ahh yes, I did notice this too in Mozilla 1.0.6 / WinXP. 
But I hadn't looked in IE6.  I just assumed it was an
alternative listing style.  But I too would expect it to be
on one line.  In IE, the Explorer apparently expands to
accommodate the text.  In Mozilla, the text is wrapped and
the Explorer shrinks (or vice versa).

If I take the HTML for a leave and look at it alone in
Mozilla, it seems fine.  I have no idea why the explorer
won't grow big enough to let the text not wrap.  Yet the
explorer on the right (mail) seems fine to me.

Look at these lines for a clue.

File: dynapi/examples/dynapi.gui.explorer.html

19:  var exp = new Explorer(70,100);
44:  var exp2 = new Explorer(270,100,null,null,'ExplorerBlock');

Change line 19 above to this:

19:  var exp = new Explorer(70,100,null,null,'ExplorerBlock');

Change nothing else.  Seems to work fine.  The Explorer
Block Style seems to handle the thing properly.  At this
point I have no idea how, or which way is correct, or why,
or how to fix, etc.  :p  I'm looking in to quite a few bugs
already.  If anyone can figure this out please share your
solution.
