Re: Amber2 (fixed) I think not
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.
