Hi all! I've been using OP for a while now, but only recently became active on the forum. After the reforge kickstarter, I decided it was time to put a CSS shine on our wiki: "Autumn Dragons":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/autumn-dragons
I know some of you have already looked it over during my initial CSS and the interactive map development, but enough work has occurred that I'd like a second opinion. Our game resumes on the 22nd of this month and I'm eager to show it off.
I, painstakingly, added nested navigation bars in the wiki to simplify wiki navigation. Also, I'm considering collapsing the Adventure Log into smaller preview cells - similar to my Character and Items pages. I really wish there was a toggle for ascending/descending order on the Adventure Log.
Please let me know what you think. We are playing D&D 3rd edition with modules and campaign settings for the Dragonlance universe.
Thanks!
Robert

EDIT: On a similar/related note, are you developing the site on a widescreen monitor "robertkety":http://www.obsidianportal.com/profile/robertkety ? I note several pages where your navigation (and subsequent top navigations) break down onto a second line. I had a similar issue when I would work on my campaign on my desktop versus my laptop. My desktop is a widescreen, so I had to be careful about dimensions or I'd get it looking good on my desktop, then go to my laptop and find it all broken.

Kallak - I'll take a look at those links. My CSS code needs to be cleaned up too - waaaaay too many lines in there. I am developing the site on multiple systems - a widescreen laptop, standard-screen laptop, and Safari testing through my iPhone. I'm not sure if you're referring to the name replacement issue, as depicted in Gaaran's last sample image, or the secondary navigation bars, as depicted in Gaaran's first sample image. The secondary (and tertiary) navigation bars only exist in the wiki sections of my site to simply content navigation. The bars are in separate div's to prevent element wrapping, but I'll go through it tonight on a different screen resolution.
Thanks for the troubleshooting! I'll get working on it tonight!

Also, just wanted to reiterate, I love what you've done with the map idea I put together, it's much more user-friendly. I've decided not to really do any more site work until the reforge is complete, since it will probably break everything, but after that I plan to rework the maps on our site as well. :P
Are you using an Apple computer? I'm having difficulty reproducing the Adventure Log error. I've tried IE, Firefox, and Chrome and in different screen resolutions.

Even if that is not the solution, is anyone with an OSX system experiencing the same display issue using the 'font-size:0px' solution for renaming elements in the navbar? If that's the case, we may need to append that code on the CSS hacks thread.

@garaan - I'm also interested in finding out more specifics regarding the display issue and what change, if any fixes the issue for you. If nothing else, i can add a note in the compilation thread about the error on OSX, but if I could add a revised version of the code that also worked, that would be even better.

I was using 0px, I ran into compatibility issues using pt in my code.
