Forum:Main page code problem

over at the fire emblem wiki (w:c:fireemblem) we used to have two polls on the main page, i've switched that for 1 poll and a quiz (more variety), but because of this the remaining poll seems to have expanded, squishing the quiz which does not look too good. Anyway to get the poll back to normal size?

 * Basically, what you do is take control of how wide your polls are. The first step is to go to your MediaWiki:Common.css and throw in this line:

div.ajax-poll { width:auto !important; }
 * Once you've done that, all the polls on the wiki will be the width of the page or table cell they are in. Now, you can also set the width of the poll, e.g.

Do you like blah? Yes No Maybe

Tried it, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything.

 * Did you reload the CSS in the browser ? Everytime we change something in the CSS, we have to do CTRL+F5 or use any other mean to get last versions of files, including emptying cache.

yes I did.

 * I switched the code with this edit; this should fix it, just wait for the cache to update (I see that it is fixed now for me). I've also made the poll and quiz both have 50% of the box rather than one taking up more space than the other.--Richardtalk 18:58, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
