I humbly request relocating the Chatterbox to the top of the screen.
As it stands, you have to be actively looking out for chat activity, to spot it,
and that requires you to scrool down the form.
Just a suggestion, Father Vroom.
Yours Humbly,

    I think that would be a good idea - make the chat box easier to see.
    On a related note, does anyone else have the 'feature' that on The Monastery Gates page only, the page is always too wide for the browser so you have to scroll down AND right to view the chatterbox and all the other nodelets? The banner section appears OK, it only the table below it that have this problem.
    I get this in IE4(NT) and Netscape 4.6 (linux).
    I can't see anything obvious in the HTML...
      Yes, that feature is evident to me when I use WinNT & Internet exploder.
      It does not, however, happen in Netscape on RH6.2.
      It has forced me (Hard decicion ;-) to almost completely stop using IE.
      What a shame...

      Yup, I suffer the same feature in Netscape 4.6 on Win95. It's an ass-chaffer.

    I have not had any problems with IE 5, or NN 4.7, but with NN6, that has
    some issues, not just with this page, but with pages that I have done and
    tested using it. It seems to be that when you test a table in a table
    (bad form these days I know), NN6 ignores the width specs for both tables
    and formats it so that everything in 'td' tags are on a single line...

    UPDATE:
    I'm at a different machine that uses IE4, and I notice the long lines scrolling
    off into forever now....
