Hmmm, I found that reference by looking in the Firefox DOM inspector CSS thing.
I dunno if you have the developer stuff installed, but if you can find DOM Inspector in one of the menus (Tools, I think?)
then navigate to a right aligned image in the left part, and select CSS in the right part and see what it lists?

Hmmm, workaround that should work, but not really the best way: add
code:
style="float:none;"
directly to the img tags for the pdf icons, and that should fix them.
But it's not an ideal solution-best to try and find the thing floating it right and fix that instead.

Well, that one did work! The positioning isn't perfect, but that can be fixed. I do have that CSS toolbar installed but i think this will have to wait until tomorrow as i've been asked to take care of something else here at work.

 

Thank you for your patience - i will have a look at this again tomorrow and revive the thread as needed! :-)

How does that DOM inspector thing work? I have been trying to use it but when i click on Dom Inspector (under Tools in the Web Developer toolbar), nothing happens. Is something supposed to open or show or something?

It should open up a new window, like this...
the firefox dom inspector

Then you click the arrow to the left of the middle and select "Find Nodes..." to find the appropriate tag.

Then select the icon to the right of the middle and select "CSS Style Rules" and it lists all the rules that are being applied to a tag and the stylesheet that the rule is in and so on.

What rendering engine does it use?

No idea; I would guess the same as Firefox itself.

Well that makes it useless, since the Web Dev toolbar has most of that functionality. If it was Trident, (IE) then you could at least see if it was applying the right rules.

Um, I'm not sure what you're on about.

The Web Developer toolbar is a third-party add-on. The DOM Inspector is installed with Firefox (unless you untick the developer options in the installer).

Doesn't open anything when i click on it. Is there another way to access that other than the Web Developer toolbar?

Well I just use the standard Tools menu. You can apparently press Ctrl+Shift+I though.

Eureka! Or something!

 

Finally found that div#rightcontents p img you were referring to - it's embedded in the page template HTML. I can't see that it serves any useful purpose, and when i put it between /* */, the pdf and other icons align where i want them. I might just delete it from the template.

 

Anyway, thank you so much for your assistance and patience with this - much appreciated!
