#3702 Comment CSS bug (Firefox)

[John LaTour]

Hi there,

Was noticing that the comment section of the new
Slashdot design was looking off in Firefox
1.5.0.4/Win32 (XP SP2 - 1280x1024). I discovered some
CSS changes that remedy it, and have attached before
and after pictures to illustrate.

I don't know what these changes will do to IE or other
browsers, but perhaps it'll help get things working all
around.

In comments.css:

change:
div.commentTop div.title {padding: .3em 0 2em 0;}

add:
div.commentTop div.details {clear: left;}

Thanks,
John LaTour (misfit13b)

This also appears on Opera v8.54 at any resolution (tested with 1280x1024 & 1600x1200).

Adding the comment scores works around the problem.

tephyr's reply is correct. If I add the comment scores, the
CSS straightens itself out.

The reason that I thought it was a Firefox bug was that
Firefox was the only browser my account was logged in with,
and my account hides the scores.
