Hi BJ:
I understand. Maybe I can take a look at it later today - or this week -
and see if I can recommend some fixes. That is if you guys are interested.

Ruth appreciate the input, css is tricky across all browsers.
especially since Microsoft likes to use non standard features in their
browser.
I use ff 1.5 and I am not having the problems you show.
here is what I use to test for all browsers, since not everyone even
uses FF.

Also the CSS went through a major change when we converted to themes.
and of course the lack of manpower to test and fix.
Thanks for you list.

Hi All:
The new OFBiz 9.x (from the packaged distribution) main storefront page
- center column - doesn't resize gracefully - at least not with FireFox
3.0.10. Content from the center column overwrites right column text even
when I resize my browser window almost as wide as it goes. Not to offend
anyone but - It looks really sloppy.
Other observations that make it look not too professional:
The top rule just below the Featured products (BTW, the "P" should be
capitalized) is longer than the other rules separating each line.
The graphics are not centered above the descriptive text
No page counters - even if there is only 1 page, I believe you
should tell people that there is only 1 page of products. (Plus, you
want to showcase the fact that the software is pagination for you. This
is a selling point!)
When you select "Gift Cards" under Browse Categories - there are some
empty lines in the list (between "Gift Cards Reload" and "Gift Cards
Purchase") Same is true of "Widgets" and "Gizmos"
Again, not to insult since I know how hard it is to get the CSS right -
but IMHO it is better to have something "safe" like the 4.x center
column layout where you can be assured that each item will fit on a
separate line and that the center column resizes gracefully (to a point
:-) than this. Especially when you are trying to get people to try it out.
Thanks for listening.
Ruth
