[edit] Search box
Depending on your resolution, the text above the search box, with "search" in different languages, doesn't look too good. In Firefox, the text is chopped of at "sø" currently, and in IE7, it is chopped of at "h" (in the Finnish text). Perhaps the text should be in two lines or something instead?

[edit] Weird effect in IE7
In IE7 (haven't tested with other versions of IE), the main page scrolls sideways perhaps 10.000 pixels or something, but there's nothing to be seen on the side. Otherwise it looks normal (except for what's noted above). I first thought it was my recent edit that did it, but it wasn't. Does anybody feel like going error-hunting?

- I read on other places, that people keep having problems with this. Maybe 1100% is the reason. I modified the temp version [1]. Please look at http://computerprojects.biz/External/Wikipedia/portal.php and tell if the problem persists, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 23:22, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Language box
Hi everybody,
I quite often have to change the language of wikipedia, e.g when I am looking for a french personality who is not in the english wiki. Of course it's possible to go to the main page, but it would be so much easier if the 'language' box would not disappear when ou get the 'No page with that title exists' message. Why it is so ??
thanks, p7029

- Are you referring to the "in other languages" box on the left side of most articles? That box only lists translations of the article you're currently viewing. It works by listing all the "interlanguage links" that have been included in the article itself, but if the article doesn't exist yet, the system doesn't have any interlanguage links to list. I suppose you could list a few major languages like French in the sidebar regardless (so the page "DoesNotExist" would link to fr:DoesNotExist). Administrators at the English Wikipedia are responsible for the "No page with that title exists" message, so I would leave a message at en:MediaWiki talk:Noarticletext. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 08:49, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
