Flexible Squares problem fixed

The fabulous [info]babyelefant was very kind to look at the code for the flexible squares and found the solution.

Insanejournal loads this: http://www.insanejournal.com/stc/lj_base.css so this causes the entry and comments to be pushed down after the sidebar.

To fix it just edit the following in the layer provided in this post.

.clear {
height: 15px;
}


change it for:

.clear{clear:none;}

And that is all. I already did and is working just fine. :)

ETA: If you are using an external stylesheet you need to be sure that it contains the .clear that is correct. If your layer has the correct line but your external .css file doesn't it won't work. I already tested it.

Comments

Thank you so much! I really appreciate this. I'm making the change in the code I offered up now.
Don't need to thank me, [info]babyelefant did all the work.
Worked like a charm!! Thank you, [info]babyelefant!!
Woohoo! Thank you and thank [info]babyelefant! :D
Thanks for that. I was learning to live with it, but if I don't have to then... woohoo!
I used lilbreck's code for the layer, and have tried to edit my layer, using the instructions above. I could not find

.clear {
height: 15px;
}

anywhere in the layer. I also didn't find

.clear{clear:none;}

But I did find

.clear{
clear:none;}

and changed it to the one line format...

But still, I have the problem described here.

I'm pretty sure I picked up lilbreck's code --after-- it had been fixed aleady. Yet, the problem persists for me.

Am I missing something? Help appreciated.

Thank you.

Eh, never mind. I fiddled a bit more and got it working. Thanks anyway!
Am I blind or does IJ not even offer Flexible Squares or Smooth Sailing as layouts? Do you have to have a paid account to get these?
Yes, you need a paid account and then you can load the layout source. Instructions here.
