Randy Watler commented on JS2-483:
----------------------------------

Please supply the version of the browsers you were using. The buggy css floating divs 'columns' layouts have been tested on a number of firefox and IE browser versions and the appearance was normal... so naturally we would like to pin down such a claim. Including your screen resolution will also be helpful.

Similarly, what version of IE were you using that failed to parse the X.99% column widths correctly?

The 'tcolums' table based layout is under major overhaul to fix many of the same problems you have attempted to address. Please test the pending commit and see if it works for you when it is released. 

Thanks for the patch... hopefully we have these issues covered!

> The current css based layouts are broken on Mozilla/Firefox. Columns are glued to the left instead of being arranged side by side. Imho css layouts are generally still very buggy.
> I switched back (again) to table based layouts and noticed some side effects regarding font sizes in IE and some problems with the customizer. I believe some of the recent changes (esp. with the 2.0 final release) to the portal layout have not been adapted to the tcolumns/layout.vm.
> So I wrote a new table based layout.vm and used the actual css based layout.vm as a master. I just inserted two or three tables and removed the css width attributes.
> This now works as expected and exactly looks like the css based layout.
> I'd like to see the attached patch to be applied. Please read a comment in the patch about a workaround to handle .99% widths.
> Regards, Thorsten
