Firefox doesn't display correctly this page

[Santi]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

With ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 when I try to watch this page http://www.boulesis.com/ from Firefox 2.0 or 3.0 the left side bar appears on the right. This doesn't happen if I use the Ubuntu Live CD, so I suppose that some package that I've installed after hardisk installation cause the bug. I try to remove all add-ons from Firefox even Java and the bug persist. However this I can view correctly the page when I use Firefox for Windows.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

Could you start firefox with a new profile? (See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs under "Try with a new profile")?

Also. could you attach a screenshot of the site? The site looks alright to me.

I'd started to have this problem with Ubuntu 7.10 and continue after
that I upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04. It seems because some package that I've
installed and even with a new Firefox Profile persist; only if I use the
live CD the page display correctly. I attach a screenshot of my desktop
so you can see that I watch. I send to you also a complete list of all
programs that I have installed

If you running firefox in safe mode it's still continuing wrong display. In ubuntu only if you use the Live Cd you can display this page right. I think that your test confirms to me that you also have a wrong display. You can see in my attachment as you can watch the page with Firefox and Windows XP. By other hand if you use Opera in Unbuntu you also can display this page fine

The same page with Opera under Ubuntu 8.04

[Santi (santisolinho)]

I think that's a bad design of Web Page becaus if you disable the CSS Browser default styles using Web Developer you can view the page correctly

Since it's been a very long time since any additional info was added to this bug, I'm just checking to see if this is still an issue, and find out what additional work should be done on this bug.

[Martin Mai (mrkanister-deactivatedaccount-deactivatedaccount)]

We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

[Santi (santisolinho)]

I think that's a problem in the design of the web page. I still continue watching the page like the screenshot that I'd sent, althoug if you use the live Cd of Ubuntu you can see the page in the right form

[Martin Mai (mrkanister-deactivatedaccount-deactivatedaccount)]

Thanks you, Santi, for your quick reply. Are you talking about the Live-CD of Intrepid or an Alpha of Jaunty?

[Santi (santisolinho)]

Dear Martin:
   I'm talking about Live CD of Intrepid, the same issue happened with
the 8.04 version. I found that was a mistake in the web page design and
I wrote to the manteiner warning about it, but now I don't remenber
what's the mistake; I think that was something in CSS styles. I wrote
again to the manteiner requesting that e-mail. But I'm surprised because
I could watch the page well with the live CD.
