Bug Styling Issue

CharlieDelta · May 23, 2013

I have this really strange styling issue with the shoutbox that I just can't put my finger on. It is very hit and miss and doesn't always happen but when it does you simply refresh the page and it is back to normal. It is almost like a cache issue???
I have not modified any templates. I disabled vboptimise and still have the issue. I am stumped.

Does the banner above it rotate?

Only upon refresh.

Does the styling issue appear when that particular banner shows up?

CharlieDelta · May 23, 2013

I have been keeping an eye on that and to answer your question, no. I even turned the banners off and had the same results.
I have been trying everything but just can't pin point it. Really strange.

How about on a default style?

The issue seems to be unclosed HTML tags and/or missing/incorrect CSS.

CharlieDelta · May 23, 2013

Yes it does occur on the default style as well. It took some traveling around but eventually reared its ugly head.

You just had to be difficult, didn't you

I'll go take a looksee at your site and see if I can find anything

Update: I've discovered the issue.

Some modification is inserting the following code before the <html> tag:

Code:

<style>.minigraph{float:{vb:stylevar left};
    background-color:#cecece;
    border: 1px solid #003366;
    position:relative;
    width:70px;
    padding:0
}
.minigraph .minibar {
    display:block;
    position:relative;
    background-image:url(christeris/reviews/images/bargraph.gif);
    background-position:{vb:stylevar left} center;
    background-repeat:repeat-x;
    border-{vb:stylevar right}:1px solid #003366;
    text-align:center;
    color:#fff;
    height:14px;
    font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:8pt;
    line-height:1.4em
}
.minigraph .minibar span {
    position:absolute;
    {vb:stylevar left}:1em
}
</style>

It only appears some of the time, and whenever it appears, the SB goes haywire.
