Tableless CSS webpages and PWB screensaver problem

Post by hbpl »

We set up our PWB home page to a tableless CSS webpage but after it goes to screensaver mode, all the graphics get pushed off the page to right of the screen and we end up with a blank white page.

It does not happen to IE, it happens only to PWB. I can reproduce the bug consistently. A workaround is to redo the page with tables instead of pure CSS code for layout but is there a way to fix this bug in PWB?

To recreate the steps:
Set the PWB home page to: http://catalog.hbpl.org/hipres/hbread.htm
Open up PWB and leave it open.
Wait for it go to screensaver or just right click on the desktop, properties, screensaver tab, click Preview for screensaver, then click ok, and go back to the open PWB page and you'll see all the graphics shifted to right.

What version of PWB are you using including the minor revision number, for example v2.10.5?

Using a stock PWB INI file the page behaves the same in PWB v2.10.5 as it does in IE.

The current version of PWB is v2.10.5.

Your INI (modified to work with v2.10) does not seem to have a problem, and any fix we would create would involve programming and an update. Updating to the current version would be the easiest solution.

Here are the instructions.

Please let me know if this corrects the problem.

thx for looking into it

Thanks for your response. I think we'll just change the webpage back to one that uses tables instead of just CSS code. That would be simpler for us than having to upgrade and change our configurations. I did test it out with the latest version of PWB and it was still occurring.
