Just a heads up Ronin or other admins who run the website. The Amber2 when you click on the black outside bit of the forum it highlights everything. Is a tad annouying when you click to get the website up form another window. Still think you should keep the first amber its the best :)

Yeah, I know about that one. I've not had chance to fix that, yet. Thanks for reminding me!

Amber (the original) will be staying around regardless, so never fear on that front.

Amber is staying because it's not a style I maintain. It's Haven's. Blue, however, is in my remit and with limited maintainance time I want to cut Blue, eventually, so I don't have to keep it up to date. Quite a bit on the 2-series styles inherit from each other... I just do one update and it affects them all. Not so for Blue or Amber.

What don't you like about the 2-series styles?

It does seem fair to give you my full reasons for not liking Blue 2, But it wouldnt be right for me to moan without at least giving them a proper trial period.
So I will switch over to Blue 2 at the office and at home, and then get back to you in a couple of days.

Re: Amber2 (fixed) I think not :p

I've had to do some nasty things to Amber2 but I think I've fixed this issue.

You should now be able to click in the black space to the left of the content in Amber2 and it should no longer select the content in the page.

The problem was being caused by a CSS hack to allow the white border around the entire page to actually encompass the two floating elements: the main content and the side bar. The "overflow: auto;" style was the root of the issue. However, without that style, the white border collapsed to the top of the page and didn't actually wrap around the floating elements.

The only way around this was to stop the elements floating so I can stop using the overflow style. Amber2 now uses a page table to contain its main components and applies the border to that table.

So, this should be fixed. Let me know if you spot any problems.
