Sweet jason, the FCK editor looks way cooler and updated. Props for that....I wanted to let you know that the fieldset/legend tag will look different in different browsers. You can style it however and then it will look the same for all of us. Good to see some changes on here to keep things fresh though!

Yeah, this whole time I didn't realize that FCK Editor had "skins" - this one is Office2003.  Figure since most people are WIndoze users they might find it more familiar.  There's a 3rd skin that's a little less busy, might switch to it if I get sick of this one.

How different are the fieldsets between browsers?  It's similar for me on Firefox and Safari - how 'bout IE?  Could I get you to do a screen grab?

Yay I blew out the pagebuildr template with that screen shot. While fieldsets don't look bad in IE, I just thought being the designers like you and I are, we are control freaks on how it should look and want it the same for all users.

OH I just thought of something, you should suck in the users CSS colors for the fieldsets so the fieldset colors are different per user.

Also check out my site. The new features you added screwed it all up. Are the fieldsets % widths, min/max widths or set PX widths?

I liked how your site turned out with the profile additions. My site looks like SHAT now because of them. The recently updated thing is headed in the right direction too. Also hmmmmmmmmmm those profile questions look nagginly familiar. FACEBOOK! lol, its ok, I would have gone there first too if I was doing this site.

Alrighty see ya!

Werid that the fieldset text is BLUE on the screen grab above - is it the same in FireFox?

I'll have to work in some styling...

Your site looks OK to me - other than your "About" box is huge!  You could put that stuff as the page preview, which would bump everything else down unfortunately.  Or, make a new Web Page and paste it into there, and make that your homepage. 

Fieldsets don't have have formatting set - just the bare tags.  It looks normal, as I said, on Mac Firefox.

Can you post a screen grab of what you're seeing???

It's like we always said at Lakeland - "Why reinvent the wheel, right?"

I will  be adding more later, which will differentiate it a bit from Facebook.  But, busted....

Here is how it shows up for me: the left content is pushed all the way down as if it were cleared (though it isn't)

Oh, OK.  It's a div width problem - mostly because you're content area is so thin.

I'll do a % width on the divs instead, so that doesn't happen.  Or just shrink the left one I guess.

Yay! Do you think we'll ever get the option to set our content area width via the admin? If so the % width will help all users in that case (not just me, the css hacker)
