No more scrollbars!

Woo-hoo! I fixed it! I found a link in the MT forums to this page at the Movable Type Knowledge Base (also knows as MT Wiki, I guess??) about how to modify the CSS template. I still don't understand it, but it works.

You got rid of the scroll bars, but now the left side bar covers over your blog text!

Hmmmm. At home it wasn't even close and here at work it's right at the edge, but the text is still visible.If you get a minute, can you email me a screenshot so I know what I'm dealing with?

Back to the drawing board, I guess.

Bizarre. At home (on a higher resolution screen), the sidebar was at least an inch over the text. Here at work, the bar is right up to the text but not at all covering it. This is odd.

What browsers are you using? I've got IE 6 in both places. I also found this:

in the support forums about the issue. Turns out my 'fix' isn't necessarily the best. Argh.

This is not inspiring my confidence in the easy customizability of MT! I look forward to you working out all the kinks for me... ;)

OK, I read some more on the forums and tweaked it a bit more. I narrowed the callender a bit and changed the size of the liks section. Is it better now?

Well, it still overlaps on my computer at home. I've checked it on 3 different computers, all using IE6, and my home computer is the only one where it is messed up. Don't know what to tell you on this one. I guess I'll just have to read your blog at work...

That's frustrating. If you can email me my a screen shot, I'll post it on the MT forums so maybe someone can help. Use "Ctrl-Print Scrn" to capture the screen and then paste into an image program.

I'd hate to have 50% of my audience not be able to easily read my site. :-) In the mean time, you can use the monthly archive page for February to see the text. It doesn't have the side menu.
