Both my desktop and my laptop running 5.0.375.55 of Google Chrome has caused the main banner in Fantasy Grounds to get offset.

I can run firefox, IE or Opera, it looks normal. But once I run Chrome, there is always a problem with the banner. I was wondering if it was something within the code that has caused this within Chrome to look all offset, because this has only happened recently.

Just wonder.

I am not sure what it might be. I use Chrome almost exclusively and only use IE and Firefox to check compatibility or for certain sites. Do you have any add-ons or special options enabled?

I use Opera normally, but when trying with Chrome now I get the same error as cpbs.

No options or any add ons, its just standard, as once I download it with nothing added on. On a semi-related note, I have noted that I loose the "Mark Forums Read" in Firefox, Opera, and IE, kind of odd.

I've noticed this as well.

There are actually two locations for the Forums. One is

https://www.fantasygrounds.com/community/

the other is

https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/index.php

The later is the "newer" layout, but the "Community" link at the top brings to the former.

Ive traced the link to:

https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?do=markread

So I made a quick bookmark in Firefox so that if I need to mark the forums read in there, I can just click the button and it seems to work.

I noticed that this only started happening recently when I just updated Google Chrome to the latest version.

Could be a problem with the newest code in Google Chrome rendering the website.

I've had the same problem since I got a new Win7 computer and installed Crome. I don't see anything obvious in the table unless it doesn't like the unclosed br tag. Maybe Crome thinks this is an XHTML page? Since in XHTML you are suppose close the tag one sided and not suppose to close it in HTML:



<tr class="titlerow">
<td colspan="2" align="center" style="vertical-align: top; height: 147px;">
<img height="147" src="/images/title.jpg">
<br>
</td>
</tr>

I just updated my Google Chrome and now I see the same thing. It doesn't appear to have anything to do with the br tags though. The back-end code has <br /> for each of them but the view source always shows it as <br> for some reason. I replaced it with a <div/> and it has the same issue.

The problem seems to be with a bug in the placement of images inside a <tr> in the latest version of Chrome. I saw a couple references to this within the last week and if you look at the background image you can tell it is shifted down (or maybe up), causing it to wrap vertically as well.
