Hi folks,
Something that has become a bit of a problem with the new skin is how
Internet Explorer interprets the main layout area. What's happening
consistantly is that the last column of a sized table is being pushed
partially out of the view area of the page, resulting in several words
not being visible. No scroll bars appear when this happens.
When the actual HTML for our table is extracted from the display, then
opened outside of the wiki, it is formatting correctly as to size, even
when dropped into another table (so I'm reasonably sure that the table
is ok).
This problem does not occur on the old version of xwiki at all.
On Firefox, this works perfectly; however as I am the only one permitted
to use firefox (company policy), I need to get IE working with the
layout in order to release this version to my users.
It is possible that the problem is buried in one of the stylesheets
(perhaps a style that IE cannot interpret which firefox can, or
vice-versa); any pointers or thoughts would be welcome.

Hey there, new to all of this wiki stuff and I love this emerging technology.
Well, to the point. I was experimenting around on my own site and playing around with the user objects.
I do not think it is wise to allow newly registered users to edit thier objects,
I registered a test user.
Went to his User Page,
edited the objects
and removed the XWiki.XWikiUser object.
To me this had an interesting effect.
1) The user only would get challenged for a e-mail address confirmation.
2) The user could not do anything (At least not that i found yet) Yipee good security
3) The user did not show up on the administrator's user list.
Although the first 2 are great, #3 to me is a problem, unless there is another way of discovering this user?
Well, when I added the XWikiUsers object back all of the user information was back (Though shouldn't it be purged when the class is removed?)
Basically I am concerned with people creating accounts, removing this Object and not comming back to my website because they screwed up their account and I will only know if they take the time to e-mail me.
