Btw it's funny to see the text in the threads right-justified. :-) I think it's the only boinc forum formatting the text in this way.
When pasting some messages from the clients it will be not really easy to read them, so maybe left-justified could be the better choice?

EDIT: I just recognized that every other is shown in that format. A good idea to separate the messages visually.

I hope this format should be fixed because it's hard to read posts.

Especially when the thread has been stretched as in the "Bug reports for charmm 5.01" thread...

like this post, http://docking.utep.edu/forum_thread.php?id=7&nowrap=true#133,
which reports really long log, needs to scroll the under bar, a bit irritating:(

I feel also that this alignment of the texts is unusable

Working on a fix. The problem is that this is standard unmodified boinc php code. If somebody has some time to check out why it doesn't work as it is supposed to, please check out the boinc-5.7.0 with cvs and go over the forum php code. Many things in the forums seem to be broken in that version (incl sig and the like). Let us know if you find something or code a fix. In the meantime we'll continue to look at how to fix this too.

Thanks!
Andre

In the file http://docking.utep.edu/docking.css


try changing

tr.row1 {// message board main table thread rows
// background-color: rgb(237,237,237);
text-align: right;
text-weight: bold;
}

into

tr.row1 {// message board main table thread rows
// background-color: rgb(237,237,237);
text-align: left;
text-weight: bold;
}

I have good hope that will do the trick :)

Ha! I think that did the trick. Why are these things so easy to fix, but so hard to find...
Glad we have another genius on board :-)

There are many more problems with the forum in this boinc version; let me know if you find/fix other ones.

Thanks!
Andre
