I observe here that the phenomenon has disappeared.
Alignment is proper from SUSE 10.2/11.1 x86_64 running Mozilla 5.0 from a Lenova Thinkpad. There is No overlapping text. No transparent windows. No evident issues.
- Alignment from Debian:
* using Epiphany - Good View; No Error.
- Alignment from Win2003:
* using IE6 - Good View. No Error.
* using IE7 - Problem remains;
but all to the left;
one post inside of another post;
overlapping text is now to the left.
Problem before was same, but to right side.
- Alignment from WinXP:
* using IE7 - Problem; same as above.
* using IE8 - Good View; No Error.
The problem now appears to be only with IE7. Dwindling width of posts shells "inside" of other post becomes exceedingly annoying four posts down from original.
Anyone using IE7, can easily upgrade to IE8.
This issue is adequately resolved.
Thank you.
