This hides the right border, if the content exceeds the frame's 
boundaries, but it still looks better than with the gap.

I implemented this differently though.

Minor Correction below:



templates/sidebar-header.inc

     Duplicate of common-header.inc

     Add the following before </head>:

     <!--a75c305b1c0a6022--><style type="text/css" media="screen">

     html {overflow-x: hidden;}

     </style>



service/portal/sidebar.php

     At end of file, change common-header.inc to sidebar-header.inc

Jan, that's correct, and I found this variation of the solution to be 
effective in my install:



templates/sidebar-header.inc

     Duplicate of common-header.inc

     Add the following before </head>:

     <!--a75c305b1c0a6022--><style type=?text/css? media=?screen?>

     html {overflow-x: hidden;}

     </style>



service/portal/sidebar.php

     At end of file, change common-header.inc to sidebar-header.inc



This allows other pages to continue using common-header, and allowed 
the sidebar to have its own.

But that would prohibit horizontal scrollbars in *all* pages which is 
an unwanted behaviour.

here's a screenshot.



the gap appears to be the space for the (non-existent) vertical scrollbar.

I noticed this same problem in Internet Explorer 6 on Windows.



I don't have a screenshot, but the problem is a 10-15 pixel gap 
between the left and right frames when IE inserts a horizontal 
scrollbar in the left sidebar frame. As in, anytime you have a long 
label.



My solution to the problem is to add:

html {

   overflow-x:hidden;

}

body {

   overflow-x:visible;

}

to the horde/themes/ie6_or_less.css file.



html is the only element this property can be changed for in IE, so 
I'm not sure that the body section actually does anything. The 
intention was to try and mitigate any unwanted effects for elements 
inheriting their overflow-x.



Adding overflow:hidden or overflow-x:hidden to the 
body.scrollbar-quirk class has no effect.

I'll try to post a screenshot and the css file mod in the next day or 
two... I'm right in the middle of class startup so things are really 
busy this week for me.



Anyway, I've generally only noticed it in IE that when the sidebar 
grows long enough to have a vertical scrollbar, it tends to flake out 
when navigating and there becomes a gap between the sidebar and its 
scrollbar and then main frame... more so if the sidebar is collapsed 
to remove the scrollbar... then refreshing doesn't always fix the view.



Anyway, to address Chuck's comments, yes that's true. The code in 
question only addresses spacing issues within IE, so it shouldn't 
negatively impact any other settings.



I apologize for the crypticness of this... I'll post more details ASAP.

And can you please explain exactly what quirk you're talking about, or 
post a screen shot? I don't see anything wrong.

That'd affect a lot more than just that page though. How about a patch 
that adds this to the body.scrollbar-quirk class that's already in 
horde/themes/screen.css?

I noticed that IE tends to flake out with the collapse sidebar button 
and general spacing issues between the sidebar and the main page.



Adding the following code to /templates/common-header.inc immediately 
before the </head> should resolve it:



<!--a75c305b1c0a6022--><style type=?text/css? media=?screen?>

html {overflow-x: hidden;}

</style>
