Widget/sidebar problem in IE solved

I'm using the Grayband theme by http://www.smartertemplates.com. This worked fine i Firefox 2.0.0.16, but in IE 6.0 (Internet Explorer 6.0) the sidebar with widgets on the right side first started when the posts was finished: it got pushed down to the bottom of the page. It's a variant of the famous float-problem in the brower-interoperability-world (so to speak). Actually a lot of themes suffers of this problem - it's not just the Grayband.

Well, the old CSS causing the problem is located in style.css:

#wrapper
{
	clear: both;
	float: left;
	width: 100%;
	color: #555555;
	background: #FFFFFF;
}
 
#content-wrapper
{
	width: 60%;
	float: left;
}
 
#sidebar-wrapper
{
	width: 35%;
	float: right;
}
 
#sidebar
{
	float: right;
	padding: 0px 15px 10px 10px;
	width: 210px;
	margin-right: 15px;
	margin-top: 0px;
}

I changed those specifications with this:

#wrapper
{
	overflow: hidden;
	width: 100%;
	color: #555555;
	background: #FFFFFF;
}
 
#content-wrapper
{
	width: 550px;
	float: left;
}
 
#sidebar-wrapper
{
	width: 210px;
	float: right;
	margin-right: 15px;
}
 
#sidebar
{
	float: right;
	padding: 0px 15px 10px 10px;
	width: 100%;
	margin-top: 0px;
}

And everything seems to work.

HomeBanking in FireFox, IE not capable

Just tried a quite funny thing with my bank.

In my virtual machine (VitualBox), I had to use home banking. For fun I tried with IE first -- it wanted to install some fance ActiveX-thingie -- but after the install and a reboot, it still didn't work properly. I couldn't find my keyfile, and because of that I had to log in with extended credentials. When logged in, I had to make a wire, but then IE crash when I should approve it.

This caused me to use FireFox -- this just worked using JRE.

Thanks, FF!
