I noted also. But it doesn't happen always, sometimes it gets aligned after a few posts..
It seems that the min width is fixed and the area gets aligned only if the text takes 1 full line.
Try and see, just add some '.' to the first post just to go on a new line.

Edit: oh my god my english is terrible ^^

doesn't work here though :)

edit your post and add letters till you reach the 2nd line...............................................
I can see THIS post correctly :)

Edit: after doom9's post after this I see it WRONG again..
Now that I edited the post I see it CORRECTLY. It's getting interactive..
Refreshing it gets WRONG AGAIN.

If I had time, I'd ask in the vbb forums.. I spent some time tinkering with the template but I couldn't figure out how to fix this.. I managed to color the whole borders including the offending white part, but I fail to find the layout bit that corresponds to the thingie that is now white and shouldn't be white. Any anybody is familiar with vbb styles, please speak up.. I'll send you the style to have a look.

The simple fact of editing a post and clicking on "Save" corrects it's width. But it doesn't correct the next posts on my FF.

Before editing : -------------------------------- After editing :

Hope this helps ^^

But if you simply refresh after having posted, the width gets wrong again.
- wrong before posting
- correct after posting
- wrong after refreshing

It's not just a problem for Firefox:

I'm a firefox user though and it doesn't bother me.

I thought it was just the new style, had no idea it was a bug. I think it looks kind of neat now that I've been looking at it for a day or two, would hate to see everything line up again. :p

I did some tweaking in the Stylevars and now the forum uses the entire horizontal area.

Thanks Swede :)

Many thanks Swede. I just like it when the maximum visible space is used for displaying the threads.

[Sirber]

much better, thanks!

The problem was there with Opera too. Thanks for fixing :)

Just in case I'm not the only person on the entire forum who liked it better that way, this is the code to re-enable it in firefox:

@-moz-document domain(forum.doom9.org) {
.page div[id^="edit"] { width: 96% !important; margin: 0 2% !important; }
}

Goes in userContent.css in the chrome folder (in FF's per-user profile). Same problem with editing, if I care enough I'll fix it later. :p

Bizarrely, vbb uses the page class for two entirely unrelated uses: the whole page, as well as (twice!) each post. I think the double-encapsulated posts thing is just a bug. (When editing, it only singly-encapsulates, thus throwing it off.) That's what causes the 12px break at each post that should be 6px.

[Swede]

Thnx, I've now found the offending code (it was an old hack that borked in 3.6.x) and removed it.

This week's Foxtrot series seems applicable, somehow:

LOL! That's brilliant!
