On this page:

http://www.jalc.org/RR/bands/overview.asp

The calendar appears to be causing the left navigation to jump a bit when the page loads.

There appears to be two sources for height and width. One of those sources is in the iframe itself. Why are there two height and width settings and where is the second one set?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

The jump is caused due to some months has 5 rows while the others has 4 rows.

It can be fixed by setting the gbShrink2fit option to false in the plugins.js.

Thanks for your prompt reply. We are going to change the subnav below it to an absolute position, hopefully that will clear this up. What is the upshot of changing that setting?

You need to measure it by yourself as different theme has different size on different browser.

The safe play is to put the calendar iframe tag into a pre-sized DIV. e.g. you may use a styled height on that DIV so that it's large enough to accommodate the calendar with the most rows. Absolute positioning should be avoided if possible.

I'm not finding the gbShrink2fit entry in the plugins.js file.

[calendarxp]

Sorry, this option should be located in the theme-name.js file not plugins.js. e.g. for mini theme, it should be in the mini.js.

OK, I have changed this to false but am still having a problem with the items below it jumping a bit. Any other thoughts?

Thanks for your help.

it may be due to the width of the iframe tag is too small. just set it larger pixel by pixel until there is no jump. or set a lot larger and let the calendar adjust itself.
